Alles

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: ENG FRE

Laß uns noch die Nacht erwarten,
Bis wir alle Sterne sehn;
Falt die Hände; in den harten
Steigen durch den stillen Garten
Geht das Heimweh auf den Zehn.

Geht und holt die Anemone,
Die du einst ans Herzchen drücktest,
Geht umklungen von dem Tone
Einst des Baums, aus dessen Krone
Du dein erstes Fernweh pflücktest.

Und du schüttelst aus den Haaren,
Was dir an der Seele frißt,
Selig Kind mit dreißig Jahren,
Alles sollst du noch erfahren,
Alles, was dir heilsam ist.

Tout

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

Attendons encore la nuit, 
Pour voir toutes les étoiles ; 
Joignons les mains ; sur la raide 
Montée du jardin silencieux 
Se glisse le mal du pays. 

Il va chercher l'anémone 
Qu'un jour tu as serrée sur ton cœur, 
Il va environné par les voix
De l'arbre du passé, où, dans sa couronne,
Tu avais cueilli ton premier mal du pays.

Et tu faisais tomber de tes cheveux
Ce qui dévore ton âme,
Bienheureux enfant de trente ans,
Tu dois encore tout apprendre,
Tout ce qui est bon pour toi.
