Frühlingsgedränge

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG ENG FRE HEB ITA

Frühlingskinder im bunten Gedränge,
Flatternde Blüten, duftende Hauche,
Schmachtende, jubelnde Liebesgesänge
Stürzen ans Herz mir aus jedem Strauche.
Frühlingskinder mein Herz umschwärmen,
Flüstern hinein mit schmeichelnden Worten,
Rufen hinein mit trunkenem Lärmen,
Rütteln an längst verschlossenen Pforten.
Frühlingskinder, mein Herz umringend,
Was doch sucht ihr darin so dringend?
Hab' ich's verrathen euch jüngst im Traume,
Schlummernd unter dem Blüthenbaume?
Brachten euch Morgenwinde die Sage,
Daß ich im Herzen eingeschlossen
Euren lieblichen Spielgenossen,
Heimlich und selig -- ihr Bildnis trage?

Note for line 7, word 4: Lang has "trunkenen", which is likely a typo.

Profusione di primavera

(Sung text translation for setting by P. Wolfrum)

See original

Language: Italian (Italiano) after the German (Deutsch)

Figli di primavera in variopinta profusione,
fiori svolazzanti, aure profumate,
struggenti, esultanti canti d'amore
cadete sul mio cuore da ogni cespuglio.
Figli di primavera mi volano intorno,
sussurrano dentro di me parole carezzevoli,
mi chiamano con ebbro strepito,
bussano al portone rimasto a lungo chiuso.
Figli di primavera, che circondate il mio cuore,
ma che cercate là dentro con tanta furia?
Vi ho forse da poco traditi in sogno,
dormendo sotto l'albero fiorito?
Vi hanno portato i venti del mattino la leggenda,
che io porto chiusi nel cuore
i vostri amabili compagni di gioco,
segreto e beato il ritratto di lei?
