Seliges Vergessen
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Spanish (Español)
Im Winde fächeln, Mutter, die Blätter, Und bei dem Säuseln Schlummre ich ein. Über mir schwanken Und spielen die Winde, Wiegen so linde Das Schiff der Gedanken, Wie wenn ohne Schranken Der Himmel mir offen, Daß still wird mein Hoffen Und Frieden ich finde, Und bei dem Säuseln Schlummre ich ein. Erwachend dann sehe, Als ob sie mich kränzen, Rings Blumen ich glänzen, Und all meine Wehen Verschweben, vergehen, Der Traum hält sie nieder, Und Leben giebt wieder Das Flüstern der Blätter, Und bei dem Säuseln Schlummre ich ein.

Bienheureux oubli
Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
Mère, les feuilles, Flottent dans le vent, Et je m'endors Dans leur bruissement. Au-dessus de moi les vents Chancellent et jouent, Ils bercent si doucement La barque de mes pensées, Ainsi lorsque sans barrière Le ciel s'ouvre à moi, Mes espoirs se calment, Je trouve alors la paix, Et dans leur bruissement Je m'endors. Puis, me réveillant, je vois, Comme si elles me couronnaient, Des fleurs briller autour de moi, Alors tous mes maux S'envolent, disparaissent, Vaincus par la rêverie, Et la vie à nouveau Chuchote dans les feuilles, Et dans leur bruissement Je m'endors.
