Ihr Grab

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE

Dort ist ihr Grab -
Die einst im Schmelz der Jugend [glühte]¹,
Dort fiel sie - dort - die schönste Blüthe
Vom Baum des Lebens ab.

Dort ist ihr Grab -
Dort schläft sie unter jener Linde.
Ach! nimmer ich ihn wiederfinde
Den Trost, den sie mir gab!

Dort ist ihr Grab -
Vom Himmel kam sie, daß die Erde
Mir Glücklichen zum Himmel werde -
Und dort stieg sie hinab.

Dort ist ihr Grab
Und dort in jenen stillen Hallen, -
Bei ihr, laß ich mit Freuden fallen
Auch meinen Pilgerstab.

La seva tomba

Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)

La seva tomba és allà,
la que un dia en l’esclat de la vida brillava,
allà caigué, la més formosa de les flors,
de l’arbre de la vida.

La seva tomba és allà,
allà dorm sota aquell til•ler.
Ai! Mai retrobaré
el reconfort que ella em donava!

La seva tomba és allà,
ella vingué del cel, perquè la terra
per a mi, home feliç, semblés el cel
i allà ella davallà.

La seva tomba és allà,
i allà, en aquelles estances silencioses,
al seu costat, amb joia, deixo caure
també el meu bastó de pelegrí.
