Weich küßt die Zweige
der weiße Mond.
Ein Flüstern wohnt
im Laub, als neige,
als schweige sich der Hain zur Ruh:
Geliebte du --
Der Weiher ruft, und
die Weide schimmert.
Ihr Schatten flimmert
in seiner Flut, und
der Wind weint in den Bäumen:
wir träumen -- wir träumen --
Die Welten leuchten
Beruhigung.
Die Niederung
hebt bleich den feuchten
Schleier hin zum Himmelssaum:
o hin -- o Traum -- --

Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
La lune blanche doucement
Embrasse la ramée,
Un murmure habite le feuillage
tandis que le bois s'incline,
se tait, tend vers le repos :
Ô bien-aimée …
L'étang appelle,
Et le saule brille.
Son ombre scintille
Sur ses eaux, et
Le vent pleure dans les arbres:
Nous rêvons … nous rêvons …
Les mondes rayonnent
L'apaisement.
Les fonds
Blêmes élèvent un voile humide
Vers la lisière du ciel :
Ô là-bas … ô rêve
