Diese Wolken in den Höhen

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE ITA LIT SPA

Diese Wolken in den Höhen,
Dieser Vöglein muntrer Zug,
Werden dich, o Huldin, sehen.
Nehmt mich mit im leichten Flug!

Diese Weste werden spielen
Scherzend dir um Wang' und Brust,
In den seidnen Locken wühlen.
Teilt ich mit euch diese Lust!

Hin zu dir von jenen Hügeln
Emsig dieses Bächlein eilt.
Wird ihr Bild sich in dir spiegeln,
Fließ zurück dann unverweilt!

Esas nubes en lo alto

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

Esas nubes en lo alto  
y la multitud de alegres aves 
te habrán de ver, oh hermosa, 
¡llevadme con ligero vuelo!  

Estos vientos se recrearán 
juguetones en tus mejillas y en tu pecho, 
se colarán en tus sedosos bucles, 
¡con vosotros compartiré esta alegría! 

Hacia ti desde esta colina 
se apresura este arroyuelo. 
Si su imagen se refleja en ti, 
¡regresa sin demora!
