Stimme der Liebe
Language: German (Deutsch)
Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE
Abendgewölke schweben hell
Am bepurpurten Himmel;
Hesperus schaut mit Liebesblick
Durch den blühenden Lindenhain,
Und sein prophetisches Trauerlied
Zirpt im Kraute das Heimchen!
Freuden der Liebe harren dein!
Flüstern leise die Winde;
Freuden der Liebe harren dein!
Tönt die Kehle der Nachtigall;
Hoch von dem Sternengewölb' herab
Hallt mir Stimme der Liebe!
Aus der Platanen Labyrinth
Wandelt Laura, die Holde!
Blumen entsprießen dem Zephyrtritt,
Und wie Sphärengesangeston
Bebt von den Rosen der Lippe mir
Süße Stimme der Liebe!

La veu de l'amor
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch)
Núvols de capvespre suren lluminosos
al cel color de porpra;
Hèsper, amb esguard amorós, aguaita
a través del bosc de til•lers florits,
i el profètic cant planyívol del grill
se sent entre les herbes!
El goig de l'amor t'espera!
Xiuxiuegen suaument els vents;
el goig de l'amor t'espera!
Canta la gola del rossinyol;
A dalt, des de la volta dels estels,
ressona cap a baix la veu de l'amor!
Del laberint de plàtans
apareix Laura, l'encisadora!
Brosten flors al pas del zèfir
i, com un cant celestial,
dels llavis de les roses m'arriba
la veu tremolosa i dolça de l'amor!
