Laß tief in dir mich lesen,
Verhehl' auch dies mir nicht,
Was für ein Zauberwesen
Aus deiner Stimme spricht!
So viele Worte dringen
Ans Ohr uns ohne Plan,
Und während sie verklingen,
Ist alles abgetan!
Doch drängt auch nur von ferne
Dein Ton zu mir sich her,
Belausch' ich ihn so gerne,
Vergess' ich ihn so schwer.
Ich bebe dann, entglimme
Von allzu rascher Glut:
Mein Herz und deine Stimme
Verstehn sich gar zu gut!
Composition:
Set to music by Robert Schumann (1810 - 1856), "Ihre Stimme", op. 96 no. 3 (1850), published 1851 [ voice and piano ], Leipzig, Whistling

Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch)
Deixa’m llegir al teu interior,
no m’amaguis tampoc
quina mena de criatura encisadora
parla per la teva boca!
Tantes paraules arriben
a les nostres orelles sense propòsit,
i quan es deixen de sentir,
tot s’ha acabat!
Però si des de la llunyania
m’arriba el so de les teves paraules,
les escolto tant de grat,
i difícilment les oblido.
I llavors tremolo, inflamat
en excés d’una rabent ardor:
el meu cor i la teva veu
s’entenen prou massa bé!
