Translation by Emanuel von Geibel (1815 - 1884)

Daß du stehst in Liebesglut
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Spanish (Español) 
Our translations:  CAT DUT ENG FRE
Daß [du stehst]1 in Liebesglut,
[Ines]2, laßt sich leicht gewahren;
Denn die Wangen offenbaren,
Was geheim im Herzen ruht.
Stets an Seufzern sich zu weiden,
Stets zu weinen statt zu singen,
Wach die Nächte hinzubringen
Und den süßen Schlaf zu meiden:
Das sind Zeichen jener Glut,
Die dein Antlitz läßt gewahren;
[Denn]3 die Wangen offenbaren,
Was geheim im Herzen ruht.

Daß [du stehst]1 in Liebesglut,
[Ines]2, laßt sich leicht gewahren;
Denn die Wangen offenbaren,
Was geheim im Herzen ruht.
Liebe, Geld und Kummer halt' ich
Für am schwersten zu verhehlen;
Denn auch bei den strengsten Seelen
Drängen sie sich vor gewaltig.
Jener unruhvolle Mut
Läßt zu deutlich sie gewahren,
Und die Wangen offenbaren,
Was geheim im Herzen ruht.
