Morgen muß ich fort von hier

(Sung text for setting by J. Brahms)

See original

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE ITA

Morgen muß ich fort von hier
Und muß Abschied nehmen;
O du allerschönste Zier,
Scheiden das bringt Grämen.
Da ich dich so treu geliebt
Über alle Maßen,
Soll ich dich verlassen. 

Wenn zwei gute Freunde sind, 
Die einander kennen,
Sonn' und Mond bewegen sich,
Ehe sie sich trennen.
Noch viel größer ist der Schmerz,
Wenn ein treu geliebtes Herz  
In die Fremde ziehet. 

 ... 

Küsset dir ein Lüftelein
Wangen oder Hände,
Denke, daß es Seufzer sein,
Die ich zu dir sende:
Tausend schick' ich täglich aus,
Die da wehen um dein Haus,
Weil ich dein gedenke.

Demain, je dois partir d'ici

(Sung text translation for setting by J. Brahms)

See original

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

Demain, je dois partir d'ici
Et je dois prendre congé
Ô belle entre toutes ;
Se séparer accable de chagrin.
Alors que je t'aime si sincèrement,
Au-delà de toute mesure,
Je dois t'abandonner.

Si deux bons amis
Se connaissent bien,
Soleil et lune peuvent disparaître
Avant qu'ils ne se séparent.
La douleur est encore plus grande
quand un cœur aimé et fidèle
Part à l'étranger.

 ...
