1. Im Rhein  [sung text not yet checked]
by Wilhelm Goldner (1839 - 1907), "Im Rhein", op. 2 (Drei Gesänge) no. 3 [ bass or baritone, piano ]
Language: German (Deutsch) 
[Im]1 Rhein, [im]1 [schönen]2 Strome,
Da spiegelt sich in den [Well'n]3
Mit seinem großen Dome
Das [große, heil'ge]4 Köln.

Im Dom da steht ein Bildnis,
Auf [goldnem Leder]5 gemalt;
In meines Lebens Wildnis
Hat's freundlich [hineingestrahlt]6.

Es schweben Blumen und [Eng'lein]7
Um unsre liebe Frau;
Die Augen, die Lippen, die Wänglein,
Die gleichen der Liebsten genau.

1.
Language: French (Français) 
Dans le Rhin, dans ce beau fleuve,
Dans ses vagues, se mire,
Avec sa grande cathédrale,
La grande et sainte ville de Cologne.

Il y a dans sa cathédrale une image
Peinte sur un cuir doré ;
Dans le désert de ma vie
Elle a gracieusement rayonné.

Des fleurs et des angelots y planent
Autour de Notre Dame ;
Ses yeux, ses lèvres, ses joues
Sont tout pareils à ceux de ma bien-aimée.
