Der Liebe himmliches Gefühl

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: DUT FRE

Der Liebe himmlisches Gefühl
Ist nicht an unsre Macht gebunden.
Ein einz'ger Blick entscheidet viel,
Noch hat mein Herz ihn nicht gefunden;
Ich wart', ich wart' mit Zuversicht.

Wenn die Natur mich lieben heisst,
Wird dieses Herz schon selbst empfinden.
Umsonst beschäftig sich mein Geist,
Nur sie kann Herzen wohl verbinden,
Nur sie, die Klugheit kann es nicht.

Valt liefde ons soms ooit ten deel

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

Valt liefde ons soms ooit ten deel,
't Is niet aan onze macht gebonden.
Een enk'le blik beslist heel veel,
Nog heeft mijn hart die niet gevonden;
Ik wacht, ik wacht en wanhoop niet.
 
Wanneer natuur mij liefde vraagt,
Zal zelf dit hart dat wel bevinden.
Vergeefs is 't als mijn geest zich plaagt,
Slechts liefde kan de harten binden,
Slechts zij, het denken kan het niet.
