Catalan (Català) translations of 5 Gesänge, opus 96

by Adolf Wallnöfer (1854 - 1946)

1. Gebet in einsamer Nacht
 (Sung text)
by Adolf Wallnöfer (1854 - 1946), "Gebet in einsamer Nacht", op. 96 (5 Gesänge) no. 1
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Die ihr meine Brüder seid,
Arme Menschen nah und ferne,
Die ihr im Bereich der Sterne
Tröstung träumet eurem Leid,
Die ihr wortlos, fromm gefaltet
In die blaß gestirnte Nacht
Schmale Dulderhände haltet,
Die ihr leidet, die ihr wacht,
Arme, irrende Gemeinde,
Schiffer ohne Stern und Glück --
Fremde, dennoch mir Vereinte,
Gebt mir meinen Gruß zurück.

1. Pregària en una nit solitària
Language: Catalan (Català) 
Vosaltres que sou els meus germans,
pobres homes, de prop i de lluny,
que, en el domini de les estrelles,
somieu en un reconfort per al vostre sofriment,
que, sense dir cap paraula,
en la pàl·lida nit estelada,
ajunteu les vostres amagrides mans de sofrent,
vosaltres que patiu, vosaltres que vetlleu,
pobre comunitat errant,
mariners sense estrella i sense fortuna –
estrangers i tanmateix units amb mi,
retorneu-me la meva salutació.

2. Sommerruh'
 (Sung text)
by Adolf Wallnöfer (1854 - 1946), "Sommerruh'", op. 96 (5 Gesänge) no. 2
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Der Wind ruht in den Ästen,
Und schaukelt sich müde nur,
Es klingt wie von fernen Festen
Eines Liedes schwindende Spur.

Mein Glück ist schlafen gangen,
Und lachet nur halb im Traum
Mit schönen, schmalen Wangen
Bewegt's die Lippen kaum.

Meine Liebe legt sich nieder
In meines Liedes Schoß
Und dehnt die zarten Glieder
Und macht die Augen groß.

All' Denkens leichte Zügel
Fallen mir aus der Hand,
Mein Lied lenkt seine Flügel
In ein grünes Schlummerland.

2. Repòs de l'estiu
Language: Catalan (Català) 
El vent reposa a les branques,
i fatigat es gronxa,
com venint d’una festa llunyana,
sona, esvanint-se, el rastre d’una cançó.

La meva felicitat s’adorm
i somriu mig en somnis,
amb a penes formoses i menudes galtes
i bells llavis.

El meu amor s’ajeu
a la falda de la meva cançó
i estira els seus delicats membres
i fa un ulls com taronges.

Les lleugeres regnes dels meus versos
em cauen de les mans,
la meva cançó mena ses ales
vers el verd país del somni.

3. Es gibt so Schönes
 (Sung text)
by Adolf Wallnöfer (1854 - 1946), "Es gibt so Schönes", op. 96 (5 Gesänge) no. 3
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Es gibt so Schönes in der Welt,
Daran du nie dich satt erquickst
Und das dir immer Treue hält
Und das du immer neu erblickst:

Der Blick von einer Alpe Grat,
Am grünen Meer ein stiller Pfad,
Ein Bach, der über Felsen springt,
Ein Vogel, der im Dunkel singt,

Ein Kind, das noch im Traume lacht,
Ein Sterneglanz der Winternacht,
Ein Abendrot im klaren See
Bekränzt von Alm und Firnenschnee,

 ... 
Ein Denken an die Kinderzeit,
Ein immer waches, zartes Leid,

Das nächtelang mit feinem Schmerz
Dir weitet das verengte Herz
Und über Sternen schön und bleich
Dir baut ein fernes Heimwehreich.

3. Hi ha tanta bellesa
Language: Catalan (Català) 
Hi ha tanta bellesa al món
que mai et podrà sadollar
i que sempre et serà fidel
i que sempre de nou esguardaràs:

la vista des de la cresta d’una muntanya,
un viarany tranquil a la vora de la mar verda,
un rierol que salta per damunt del rocam,
un ocell que canta en la foscúria,

un infant que encara somriu en somnis,
l’esclat de les estrelles en una nit d’hivern,
la vermellor del capvespre en un llac transparent 
envoltat de muntanyes i geleres,

una cançó escoltada en un tancat del carrer,
una salutació mútua amb uns vianants,
un instant de pensar en la infantesa,
una pena sempre viva i tendra,

que durant moltes nits amb lleuger dolor
eixampla el teu cor encongit
i damunt les estrelles belles i pàl·lides
et basteix un llunyà reialme de nostàlgia.

4. Kennst du das auch?
 (Sung text)
by Adolf Wallnöfer (1854 - 1946), "Kennst du das auch?", op. 96 (5 Gesänge) no. 4
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Kennst du das auch, dass manchesmal
Inmitten einer lauten Lust,
Bei einem Fest, in einem frohen Saal,
Du plötzlich schweigen und hinweggeh'n musst?

Dann legst du dich aufs Lager ohne Schlaf
Wie Einer, den ein plötzlich Herzweh traf;
Lust und Gelächter ist verstiebt wie Rauch,
Du weinst, weinst ohne Halt - Kennst du das auch?

4. Et passa també a tu?
Language: Catalan (Català) 
Et passa també a tu que moltes vegades
enmig d’una clamorosa joia,
en una festa, en una sala plena de gatzara,
de sobte has de callar i marxar?

Llavors t’estires al llit sense dormir,
com algú colpit sobtadament per l’enyorança;
el goig i les riallades s’han dissipat com el fum,
i tu plores, plores sense parar – et passa també a tu?

5. Dorfabend
 (Sung text)
by Adolf Wallnöfer (1854 - 1946), "Dorfabend", op. 96 (5 Gesänge) no. 5
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Der Schäfer mit den Schafen
Zieht durch die stillen Gassen ein,
Die Häuser wollen schlafen
Und dämmern schon und nicken ein.

Ich bin in diesen Mauern
Der einz'ge fremde Mann zur Stund,
Es trinkt mein Herz mit Trauern
Den Kelch der Sehnsucht bis zum Grund.

Wohin der Weg mich führet,
Hat überall ein Herd gebrannt;
Nur ich hab nie verspüret,
Was Heimat ist und Vaterland.

5. Capvespre al vilatge
Language: Catalan (Català) 
El pastor amb les ovelles
entra pels tranquils carrerons,
les cases volen dormir
i ja s’enfosqueixen i s’endormisquen.

A dins d’aquestes muralles
sóc l’únic estranger a hores d’ara,
amb tristor, el meu cor beu
el calze de la nostàlgia fins al fons.

Arreu on m’ha portat el meu camí,
sempre ha cremat una llar;
però mai he experimentat
què és una pàtria i una terra nadiua.
