Der Morgenkuß

(Sung text for setting by F. Schubert)

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE SPA

Durch eine ganze Nacht sich nah zu seyn,
So Hand in Hand, so Arm im Arme weilen,
So viel empfinden, ohne mitzutheilen -
Ist eine wonnevolle Pein!

So immer Seelenblick im Seelenblick
Auch den geheimsten Wunsch des Herzens sehen,
So wenig sprechen, und sich doch verstehen -
Ist hohes martervolles Glück!

Zum Lohn für die im Zwang verschwundne Zeit
Dann bey dem Morgenstral, warm, mit Entzücken
Sich Mund an Mund, und Herz an Herz sich drücken -
O dieß ist - Engelseligkeit!

De kus in de morgen

(Sung text translation for setting by F. Schubert)

See original

Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the German (Deutsch)

Elkaar een hele nacht nabij te zijn,
Zo hand in hand, zo arm in arm te dwalen,
Zoveel te voelen, zonder te verhalen,
Is een verrukk'lijk fijne pijn.
 
Zo steeds, elkaar doorschouwend aan één stuk,
Ook de geheimste wens van 't hart te schatten,
Zo weinig spreken en toch alles vatten,
Is diep en kwellend groot geluk.
 
Als loon voor de onvrij verloren tijd
Dan in het morgenlicht, met warm verrukken,
Zich mond aan mond, en hart aan hart te drukken:
O, dat is hemelzaligheid!
