Paisible vallée

(Sung text translation for setting by J. Lang)

See original

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

Quand aux derniers rayons du soir
Des montagnes de nuages d'or s'élèvent
Et se révèlent comme des alpes,
En larmes, souvent je me demande : 
« Est-ce bien entre eux que se trouve
La paisible vallée à laquelle j'aspire ? »
