by Jens Peter Jacobsen (1847 - 1885)
Translation by Robert Franz Arnold (1872 - 1938)

Lad Vaaren komme, mens den vil
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
Our translations:  FRE
Lad Vaaren komme, mens den vil,
Med Grønt, der grønnes,
Med tusend Fugles Fløjtespil,
Mens Blomster blomstre
Og alt det Skønnes
Favreste Fagre
Kommer at flagre
Ud over Enge og ud over Agre,
Vælder i Haver og skjules i Skove,
Vælter sin Duft over Vang, over Vove --
Hvad gør de mig?
Mit Hjærte er ej Blomst, ej Blad,
Og Vaaren gør det ikke glad:
Det har sin egen, sære Vaar --
      Naar?

Den Lenz lass kommen
NOTE: the footnotes have been removed from this text; return to general view
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Danish (Dansk) 
Den Lenz lass kommen, wenn er mag,
Im grünen Kleide,
Mit tausend Vöglein in Busch und Hag;
Wenn Blumen blühn
Auf der weiten Haide,
Wenn alles, was schön,
Über Täler und Höhn
Hinflattert und schwebt mit Freudengetön,
In Gärten sprießt und sich birgt in die Wälder,
Seinen Duft hinwälzt über Wogen und Felder -
Was gilt es mir?
Mein Herz ist weder Blatt noch Blüte,
Dem Frühling schließt sich mein Gemüte,
Es steht in seines eig'nen Lenzes Bann -
Wann kommt der, wann?
