Deine süßen, süßen Schauer,
O Waldesruh',
In meine Seele hauche
Und träufle du!
Laß mich träumen die Träume
Der Jugendzeit!
O Frieden, o Ruh'! komm' über mich!
Wie lieb' ich dich, lieb' ich dich,
    Waldeinsamkeit!

Märzveilchen blühen,  ... ,
Der Frühling kam;
Es zwitschern die Vöglein
So wundersam;
 ... 

Kein Laut sonst, Ruhe
Weit und breit!
 ... 
O Frieden, o Ruh'! komm' über mich!
Wie lieb' ich dich, lieb' ich dich,
   Waldeinsamkeit!

Solitude de la forêt

(Sung text translation for setting by J. Pache)

See original

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

Tes doux, doux frissons, 
Ô  paix de la forêt,
Tu les souffles et les instilles
Dans mon âme !
Fais-moi rêver les rêves
De jeunesse !
Ô paix, ô calme, étendez-vous sur moi,
Comme je t'aime, je t'aime,
   Solitude de la forêt !

Les violettes fleurissent, dans les arbres monte
La jeune sève !
Les oiseaux gazouillent, les cimes bruissent
Si merveilleux.
 ... 

Hiératique silence du dimanche
Et du printemps,
Pas un bruit, pas une âme
À cent lieues à la ronde !
Seul un léger chagrin
Est mon escorte !
Ô paix, ô calme, étendez-vous sur moi,
Comme je t'aime, je t'aime,
   Solitude de la forêt !

Note: the text above is taken from stanza 1, 2 (lines 1-4), 3 of the original text.
