Meine Rose
Language: German (Deutsch)
Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE ITA SPA
Dem holden Lenzgeschmeide,
Der Rose, meiner Freude,
Die schon gebeugt und blasser
Vom heißen Strahl der Sonnen,
Reich' ich den Becher Wasser
Aus [tiefem]1 Bronnen.
Du Rose meines Herzens!
Vom stillen Strahl des Schmerzens
Bist du gebeugt und blasser;
Ich möchte dir zu Füßen,
Wie dieser Blume Wasser,
Still meine Seele gießen!
Könnt' ich dann auch nicht sehen
Dich [auferstehen]2.

Mi rosa
Language: Spanish (Español) after the German (Deutsch)
A la graciosa joya de la primavera
A la rosa, mi alegría
que ya se cae y empalidece
por al ardiente resplandor de sol
tiendo un vaso de agua
del oscuro, profundo pozo.
Tú, rosa de mi corazón
Por el silencioso resplandor del dolor
te caes y empalideces,
quisiera que a tus pies
como riega el agua a esta flor
se regase mi alma en silencio.
Entonces nunca podré verte
resucitar felizmente.
