Dies aber kann mein Sehnen nimmer fassen,
daß nun von mir zu dir kein Weg mehr führe,
daß du vorübergehst an meiner Türe
in ferne, stumme, ungekannte Gassen.

Wär' es mein Wunsch, daß mir dein Bild erbleiche,
wie Sonnenglanz, von Nebeln aufgetrunken,
wie einer Landschaft frohes Bild, versunken
im glatten Spiegel abendstiller Teiche?

Der Regen fällt. Die müden Bäume triefen.
Wie welkes Laub verwehn viel Sonnenstunden.
Noch hab' ich in mein Los mich nicht gefunden
und seines Dunkels uferlose Tiefen.

Això el meu anhel no ho pot mai capir

(Sung text translation for setting by F. Schreker)

See original

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

Això el meu anhel no ho pot mai capir,
que adés cap camí meni de mi a tu,
que passis de llarg a la meva porta
vers carrerons llunyans, silenciosos i desconeguts.

El meu desig seria que la teva imatge empal·lidís
com l’esclat del sol englotit per la boira,
com la joiosa imatge d’un paisatge enfonsat
en el llis mirall d’un estany en la quietud del capvespre.

La pluja cau. Els arbres cansats regalimen.
Com fullatge marcit, moltes hores de sol s’enfugen.
Encara no m’he resignat al meu destí
ni a les profunditats sense límits de la seva foscúria.
