Nimm mich, du Welt, an deine Brust

Monde, prends‑moi contre ton sein

(Sung text translation for setting by E. Reichert)

See original

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

 ... 

Monde, prends-moi contre ton sein
Et refais couler ton sombre plaisir
Dans mon cœur angoissé.
Nous nous sommes fourvoyés
Mais  sur la route de toutes les patries
Nous devons rejoindre notre mère.
