Der Morgenkuß

(Sung text for setting by F. Schubert)

Language: German (Deutsch)

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!

Le baiser du matin

(Sung text translation for setting by F. Schubert)

See original

Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)

Être près l'un de l'autre toute la nuit,
La main dans la main, le bras dans le bras,
Ressentir tant sans communiquer,
Est une douleur merveilleuse.

Regarder constamment dans l'âme de l'autre,
Voir les souhaits les plus secrets du cœur,
Parler si peu et comprendre tant,
Est un bonheur sublime et fait souffrir le martyr.

Comme récompense pour le temps disparu dans cette contrainte,
Alors à la lumière du matin, doux, avec délice,
Presser bouche contre bouche et cœur contre cœur --
Oh, c'est un bonheur angélique !
