Kennst du das Land? wo die Citronen...
Language: German (Deutsch)
Kennst du das Land? wo die Citronen blühn,
Im dunkeln Laub die [Gold-Orangen]1 glühn,
Ein sanfter Wind vom blauen Himmel weht,
Die Myrte still und hoch der Lorbeer steht,
Kennst du es wohl?
Dahin! Dahin
Möcht' ich mit dir, o mein Geliebter, ziehn.
Kennst du das Haus? Auf Säulen ruht sein Dach,
Es glänzt der Saal, es schimmert das Gemach,
Und Marmorbilder stehn und sehn mich an:
Was hat man Dir, du armes Kind, gethan?
Kennst du es wohl?
Dahin! Dahin
Möcht' ich mit dir, o mein Beschützer, ziehn.
Kennst du den Berg und seinen Wolkensteg?
Das Maulthier sucht im Nebel seinen Weg;
In [Höhlen]2 wohnt der Drachen alte Brut;
Es stürzt der Fels und über ihn die Flut.
Kennst du [ihn]3 wohl?
Dahin! Dahin
Geht unser Weg! o Vater, laß uns ziehn!4

Coneixes el país on floreixen els...
Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)
Coneixes el país on floreixen els llimoners i daurades taronges resplendeixen enmig del fosc fullam, on del cel blau bufa un oreig suau, on creixen la serena murtra i el llorer ben alt? El coneixes potser? Cap allí, cap allí amb tu m’agradaria anar, oh estimat meu. Coneixes la casa? Damunt columnes reposa la seva teulada. Brilla la sala, les estances resplendeixen, hi ha estàtues de marbre que m’esguarden: què t’han fet, pobre criatura? La coneixes potser? Cap allí, cap allí amb tu m’agradaria anar, oh protector meu. Coneixes la muntanya i la seva passera ennuvolada? La mula hi cerca el seu camí; dins de coves viu la vella nissaga dels dracs; cau la roca i al seu damunt el devessall! La coneixes potser? Cap allí, cap allí ens porta el nostre camí! Oh Pare, deixa’ns marxar!
