Die Blume.
O Quell, was strömst du rasch und wild,
Und wühlst in deinem Silbersande,
Und drängst, von weißem Schaum verhüllt,
Dich schwellend auf am grünen Rande?
O riesle, Quell,
Doch glatt und hell,
Daß ich, verklärt von zartem Thaue,
Mein zitternd Bild in dir erschaue.

La flor: Oh font, per què rages tan rabent i tan feréstega, i furgues en el teu areny argentat, i t’apresses, coberta d’escuma blanca, tot creixent, vers la riba verda? Oh font, flueix però suaument i clara, perquè jo, transfigurat per delicades gotes de rosada, pugui veure en tu la meva trèmula imatge.
