Die abgeblühte Linde

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE

Wirst du halten, was du schwurst,
Wenn mir die Zeit die Locken bleicht?
Wie du über Berge fuhrst,
Eilt das Wiedersehn nicht leicht.

Änd'rung ist das Kind der Zeit,
Womit Trennung uns bedroht,
Und was die Zukunft beut,
Ist ein blässer's Lebensroth.

Sieh, die Linde blühet noch,
Als du heute von ihr gehst;
Wirst sie wieder finden, doch
Ihre Blüthen stiehlt der West.

Einsam steht sie dann, vorbei
Geht man kalt, bemerkt sie kaum.
Nur der Gärtner bleibt ihr treu,
Denn er liebt in ihr den Baum.

Note: No published source of this poem is known. Most likely Schubert received the text in manuscript form from Széchényi, the dedicatee of Schubert's op. 7.

El til•ler desflorit

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

Acompliràs el que has jurat
quan el temps m’hagi canusit els rínxols?
Com tu marxes enllà de les muntanyes,
tenir pressa per reveure’ns no és pas fàcil.

El canvi és el fill del temps,
amb què la separació ens amenaça,
i allò que el futur ofereix
és tan sols una pàl•lida rojor de vida.

Guaita, el til•ler encara floreix,
quan tu avui el deixis;
el tornaràs a veure, però llavors
el vent de ponent haurà robat les seves flors.

Aleshores romandrà solitari, la gent
passarà pel davant indiferent, a penes parant-hi esment.
Tan sols el jardiner li restarà fidel
car ell estima l’arbre tal com és.
