Frühlingslust

(Sung text for setting by R. Schumann)

See original

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE

Nun stehen die Rosen in Blüte, 
Da wirft die Liebe ein Netzlein aus. 
Du schwanker, loser Falter, 
Du hilfst dir nimmer heraus!

Und wenn ich wäre gefangen 
In dieser jungen Rosenzeit, 
Und wär's die Haft der Liebe, 
Ich müßte vergehen vor Leid.

Ich mag nicht sehen und sorgen; 
Durch blühende Wälder schweift mein Lauf. 
Die lustigen Lieder fliegen 
Bis in die Wipfel hinauf.

Robert Schumann

Lentelust

(Sung text translation for setting by R. Schumann)

See original

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

Nu staan
staan, ja, de rozen te bloeien,
Dan werpt de liefd'
liefde een netje uit,
Jij, lichte fladdervlinder,
Jij redt je nooit meer daaruit.
 
En als ik zelf was gevangen,
Geboeid door rozenbloei alom,
En was 'k de slaaf der liefde,
Ik kwam van ellende wel om.
 
Ik wil niet staren en somb'ren;
Door bloeiende bossen zwerf ik volop.
Mijn vrolijke lied'ren vliegen
Tot in de toppen hoog op.
