Liebe kam aus fernen Landen
Language: German (Deutsch)
Liebe kam aus fernen Landen Und kein Wesen folgte ihr, Und die Göttin winkte mir, Schlang mich ein mit süßen Banden. Da begann ich Schmerz zu fühlen, Tränen dämmerten den Blick: Ach! was ist der Liebe Glück, Klagt' ich, wozu dieses Spielen? Keinen hab' ich weit gefunden, Sagte lieblich die Gestalt, Fühle du nun die Gewalt, Die die Herzen sonst gebunden. Alle meine Wünsche flogen In der Lüfte blauen Raum, Ruhm schien mir ein Morgentraum, Nur ein Klang der Meereswogen. Ach! wer löst nun meine Ketten? Denn gefesselt ist der Arm, Mich umfleucht der Sorgen Schwarm; Keiner, keiner will mich retten? Darf ich in den Spiegel schauen, Den die Hoffnung vor mir hält? Ach, wie trügend ist die Welt! Nein, ich kann ihr nicht vertrauen. O, und dennoch laß nicht wanken, Was dir nur noch Stärke gibt, Wenn die Einz'ge dich nicht liebt, Bleib nur bittrer Tod dem Kranken.

Aşk uzak diyarlardan ulaştı
Language: Turkish (Türkçe) after the German (Deutsch)
Aşk uzak diyarlardan ulaştı, Onu izleyen yoktu, O zaman tanrıça bana işaret verdi Ve beni tatlı bağlarla sarmaladı. O zaman ben acıyı hissetmeye başladım, Gözyaşlarım görüşümü puslandırdı. Ah, aşk mutluluğu nedir? Diye şikayet ettim, bu oyun niye? Uzun zamandır kimseyi bulamadım, Dedi tatlılıkla o varlık, Sen şimdi artık o gücü hisset, Kalpleri her zaman bağlayan. Arzularımın hepsi uçup yok oldu Masmavi kubbenin boşluğunda. Şöhret bana bir sabah rüyası gibi geldi, Yalnızca denizin dalgalanmalarının bir tınısıydı. Ah! Benim zincirlerimi kim çözer? Zira kollarım bağlı, Etrafım ise bir sürü dert dolu, Hiç kimse beni kurtarmayacak mı? Aynaya bakabilir miyim, Ümidin önüme tuttuğu? Ah, şu dünya ne aldatıcı! Hayır, ona güvenemem. Ah ama yine de sarsılmasına izin verme Sana hala güç veren şeyin, Şayet o biricik varlık seni sevmezsa Hastanın payı acı ölüm olacaktır.
