Ein Fichtenbaum steht einsam
Language: German (Deutsch)
Ein [Fichtenbaum]1 steht einsam Im Norden auf kahler Höh'; Ihn schläfert; mit weißer Decke Umhüllen ihn Eis und Schnee. Er träumt von einer Palme, Die fern im Morgenland, Einsam und [schweigend]2 trauert Auf brennender Felsenwand.

Een sparrenboom staat eenzaam
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the German (Deutsch)
Een sparrenboom staat eenzaam In ’t noorden op ’n kale berg, Is slaap’rig; een witte deken Van ijs en sneeuw dekt de dwerg. Hij droomt steeds van een palmboom, Die ver in ’t Morgenland Eenzaam en zwijgend treurt daar Op ’n gloeiende steenrotswand.
