Der Blumenbrief

(Sung text for setting by F. Schubert)

See original

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT CHI DUT ENG ENG FRE

Euch Blümlein will ich senden
Zur schönen Jungfrau dort,
Fleht sie, mein Leid zu enden
Mit einem guten Wort.

Du, Rose, kannst ihr sagen,
Wie ich in Lieb' erglüh',
Wie ich um sie muß klagen
Und weinen spät und früh.

 ... 

Du, Myrte, flüstre leise
Ihr meine Hoffnung zu,
Sag': auf des Lebens Reise
Glänzt ihm kein Stern als du.

Du, Ringelblume, deute
Ihr der Verzweiflung Schmerz,
Sag' ihr: des Grabes Beute
Wird ohne dich sein Herz.

La missiva de les flors

(Sung text translation for setting by F. Schubert)

See original

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

Petites flors, us vull enviar
a aquella formosa donzella allà,
supliqueu-li que posi fi a la meva sofrença
amb bones paraules.

Tu, rosa, li pots dir
com m’abruso d’amor,
com per ella haig de llanguir
i plorar nit i dia.

 ... 

Tu, calèndula, fes-li conèixer
el patiment del meu desesper,
digues-li: sense tu, el seu cor
serà el botí de la tomba.

Note: the text above is taken from stanzas 1,2,4,5 of the original text.
