Die Schiffende

(Sung text for setting by F. Hensel)

See original

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE

Sie wankt dahin; die Abendwinde spielen,
  Ihr Apfelblüten zu;
Die Vögelein, so ihre Nähe fühlen,
  Erwachen aus der Ruh.

Wie ihr Gewand im Mondenglanze flittert,
  Und ihres Busens Flor!
Sie wankt dahin; der helle Vollmond zittert
  Aus jeder Well' hervor.

 ... 

Verdeckt mir nicht, ihr hangenden Gesträuche,
  Ihr lächelndes Gesicht;
Sie tanzt so schön auf ihrem Silberteiche:
  Ihr Erlen, bergt sie nicht.

Weht, Winde, weht, o flügelt sie, ihr Winde,
  An diese Laub' heran,
Daß ich mich ihr im Schauer dieser Linde
  Beseligt nahen kann.

La navegant

(Sung text translation for setting by F. Hensel)

See original

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

Ella passa vacil•lant; el vent del capvespre juganer
li envia flors de pomer;
els ocellets sentint la seva divinitat,
es desvetllen del seu repòs.

Com refulgeix la seva vestimenta a la llum de la lluna,
i el crespó al seu pit!
Ella passa vacil•lant; la lluna plena, lluminosa,
titil•la damunt les onades.

 ... 

Bufeu vents, bufeu, doneu-li ales, oh vents,
porteu-la a aquesta arbreda,
perquè, en el fremiment d’aquest til•ler,
pugui estar a prop d’ella.
