Finnish (Suomi) translations of Zehn Lieder, opus 18

by Victor Emanuel Bendix (1851 - 1926)

1. Der Tod, das ist die kühle Nacht  [sung text not yet checked]
by Victor Emanuel Bendix (1851 - 1926), "Der Tod, das ist die kühle Nacht", op. 18 (Zehn Lieder) no. 1
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Der Tod, das ist die kühle Nacht,
Das Leben ist der schwüle Tag.
Es dunkelt schon, mich schläfert,
Der Tag hat mich müd gemacht.

Über mein Bett erhebt sich ein Baum,
Drin singt die junge Nachtigall;
Sie singt von lauter Liebe -
Ich hör es sogar im Traum.

by Heinrich Heine (1797 - 1856)
1. Kuolema on kylmä yö
Language: Finnish (Suomi) 
Kuolema on kylmä yö.
Elämä on helteinen päivä.
On jo pimeää; olen väsynyt,
päivä on uuvuttanut minut.

Sänkyni ylitse kohoaa puu,
nuori satakieli laulaa siellä;
hän laulaa sulasta rakkaudesta -
kuulen sen jopa unissani.
