Our translations: DUT ENG FRE

Vöglein in den sonn'gen Tagen,
Lüfte blau, die mich verführen!
Könnt ich bunte Flügel rühren,
Über Berg und Wald sie schlagen.

Ach! es spricht des Frühlings Schöne,
Und die Vöglein alle singen:
Sind denn nicht die Farben Töne,
Und die Töne bunte Schwingen?

Vöglein, ja, ich laß das Zagen!
Winde sanft die Segel rühren,
Und ich lasse mich entführen,
Ach! wohin? mag ich nicht fragen.

Klankherinneringen I

(Sung text translation for setting by F. Hensel)

See original

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

Vogels en vol zon de dagen,
Luchten blauw, die mij verleiden!
Kon ‘k met vleugels mij bevrijden,
Over berg en bos mij dragen.
 
Ach, de lente toont het schone,
Vogels vieren luid de teugels:
Zijn dan niet de kleuren tonen
En de tonen bonte vleugels?
 
Vogels, ja, ik stop met klagen!
Winden gaan het zeil beroeren,
En ik laat mijzelf ontvoeren,
Ach, waarheen wil ik niet vragen.
