Glockentürmers Töchterlein

(Sung text for setting by R. Schumann)

See original

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE

Mein hochgebornes Schätzelein,
Des Glockenthürmers Töchterlein,
Mahnt mich bei Nacht und Tage
Mit jedem Glockenschlage:
Gedenke mein! gedenke mein!

Mein hochgebornes Schätzelein,
Des Glockenthürmers Töchterlein,
Rufet zu jeder Stunde
Mich mit der Glocken Munde:
Ich harre dein, ich harre dein.

 ... 

Mein hochgebornes Schätzelein,
Ist nicht hochmütig, und das ist fein;
Es kommt ja hin und wieder
Von seiner Höh' hernieder
Zu mir gestiegen im Mondenschein.

Mein hochgebornes Schätzelein,
Sprach gestern: Der alte Thurm fällt ein,
Man merkt es an seinem Schwanken,
Ich will in Lüften nicht wanken,
Will dein zu eb'ner Erde sein.

La filleta del campaner

(Sung text translation for setting by R. Schumann)

See original

Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)

El meu petit tresor d’alt llinatge,
la filleta del campaner,
em recorda nit i dia
amb cada toc de campana:
Pensa en mi! Pensa en mi!

El meu petit tresor d’alt llinatge,
la filleta del campaner,
em crida cada hora
amb la veu de la campana:
T’espero! T’espero!

 ... 

El meu petit tresor d’alt llinatge,
no és altiva i això està bé;
ella es mou amunt i avall
i davalla de les seves alçàries
al meu envers a la llum de la lluna.

El meu petit tresor d’alt llinatge,
digué ahir: el vell campanar s’esfondra,
es pot veure com flaqueja,
jo no vull trontollar a l’aire,
vull ser teva a la terra ferma.
