Æbleblomst

Language: Danish (Dansk)

Our translations: FRE

Du fine hvide Æbleblomst!
Hvem gav dig dette Lykkeskær!
Ak, jeg er Solens Hjertenskær!

Hvor fik du denne Purpurglød,
Som brænder i din fine Hud?
Ak, jeg er Solens Foraasbrud!

Velsignet af min Brudgoms Kys
Jeg lever i hans Aandedrag
En kort lyksalig Foraarsdag.

Og naar hans sidste varme Kys
I Aftenrøden strejfer mig
Så hvisker jeg: Jeg elsker dig!

Og lukker mig og bøjer mig
Og drysser over Græsset ud
Mit hvide Flor, mit Bryllupsskrud.

Fleur de pommier

NOTE: the footnotes have been removed from this text; return to general view

Language: French (Français) after the Danish (Dansk)

Toi, fine fleur de pommier !
Qui t'a donné cette heureuse clarté ?
Ah, je suis l'amante du soleil !

Où as-tu pris cette radiance pourpre
Qui embrase ta fine peau ?
Ah, je suis la jeune mariée du printemps !

Bénie par mon mari le nuage,
Je vis sous la caresse de son souffle
Un court et bienheureux jour de printemps.

Et quand son dernier chaud baiser
Me touche au coucher de soleil,
Alors je chuchote : je t'aime !

Et je me referme et m'incline
Et je jonche sur l'herbe
Ma blanche floraison, ma robe de mariée.
