Spanisches Lied

(Sung text for setting by J. Brahms)

See original

Language: German (Deutsch) after the Spanish (Español)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE

In dem Schatten meiner Locken
Schlief mir mein Geliebter ein.
Weck' ich ihn nun auf? -- Ach nein!

Sorglich strählt' ich meine krausen
Locken täglich in der Frühe,
Doch umsonst ist meine Mühe,
Weil die Winde sie zerzausen.
Lockenschatten, Windessausen
Schläferten den Liebsten ein.
Weck' ich ihn nun auf? -- Ach nein!

Hören muß ich, wie ihn gräme,
Daß er schmachtet schon so lange,
Daß ihm Leben gäb und nähme
Diese meine braune Wange,
Und er nennt mich seine Schlange,
Und doch schlief er bei mir ein.
Weck' ich ihn nun auf? -- Ach nein!

Cançó espanyola

(Sung text translation for setting by J. Brahms)

See original

Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)

A l’ombra dels meus rínxols
el meu estimat s’ha adormit.
El desperto ara? – Ai, no!

Amb cura pentino els meus embullats
rínxols cada dia al matí,
però inútil és el meu afany,
perquè el vent me’ls embrolla.
L’ombra dels rínxols, la remor del vent,
han fet adormir el meu estimat.
El desperto ara? – Ai, no!

Haig d’escoltar com ell es plany,
com fa tant de temps es deleix per mi,
que li donen i prenen la vida
les meves galtes morenes,
i ell m’anomena la seva serp,
i tanmateix dorm al meu costat.
El desperto ara? – Ai, no!
