by
Heinrich Heine (1797 - 1856)
Language: German (Deutsch)
Im Rhein, im schönen Strome,
Da spiegelt sich in den Well'n
Mit seinem großen Dome
Das große, heil'ge Köln.
Im Dom da steht ein Bildnis,
Auf goldnem Leder gemalt;
In meines Lebens Wildnis
Hat's freundlich hineingestrahlt.
Es schweben Blumen und Eng'lein
Um unsre liebe Frau;
Die Augen, die Lippen, die Wänglein,
Die gleichen der Liebsten genau.
Note: in the first version of the poem, Heine has "heiligen" in stanza 1, line 1, word 4.

Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
Dans le Rhin, dans ce beau fleuve,
Dans ses vagues, se mire,
Avec sa grande cathédrale,
La grande et sainte ville de Cologne.
Il y a dans sa cathédrale une image
Peinte sur un cuir doré ;
Dans le désert de ma vie
Elle a gracieusement rayonné.
Des fleurs et des angelots y planent
Autour de Notre Dame ;
Ses yeux, ses lèvres, ses joues
Sont tout pareils à ceux de ma bien-aimée.
