Danish (Dansk) translations of Vier Lieder, opus 19

by Margie Bennett

1. Auf Flügeln des Gesanges  [sung text not yet checked]
by Margie Bennett , "Auf Flügeln des Gesanges", op. 19 (Vier Lieder) no. 2, published 1902
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Auf Flügeln des Gesanges,
Herzliebchen, trag ich dich fort,
Fort nach den Fluren des Ganges,
Dort weiß ich den schönsten Ort;

Dort liegt ein [rotblühender]1 Garten
Im stillen Mondenschein,
Die Lotosblumen erwarten
Ihr trautes Schwesterlein.

Die Veilchen kichern und kosen,
Und schaun nach den Sternen empor,
Heimlich erzählen die Rosen
Sich duftende Märchen ins Ohr.

Es hüpfen herbei und lauschen
Die frommen, klugen Gazelln,
Und in der Ferne rauschen
Des [heiligen]2 Stromes Well'n.

Dort wollen wir niedersinken
Unter dem Palmenbaum,
Und Liebe und Ruhe trinken,
Und träumen seligen Traum.

1. På Sangens Tonevinger
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
På sangens tonevinger, 
min hjertenskær, bærer jeg dig væk,
væk til Gangesflodens løb, 
dér kender jeg det skønneste sted.

Der ligger en [rødblomstrende] have
i det stille måneskin,
lotusblomsterne venter på
deres trofaste søsterlil.

Violerne fniser og kæler,
og kigger opad mod stjernerne,
I løn fortæller roserne
hinanden duftende eventyr.

Her springer og lytter
De skikkelige, kloge gazeller,
og i det fjerne bruser
de [hellige] vandes bølger.

Her vil vi synke ned
under palmetræet,
og drikke kærlighed og ro,
og drømme en salig drøm.
