Den blomstrende Sommer blev kædet til...
Language: Danish (Dansk)
Available translation(s): FRE GER
Den blomstrende Sommer blev kædet til Høst,
Til Død, hvad der var ilive.
Sorg skal følge paa Lyst,
Stille, Du bankende Bryst!
Kun de evige Love skal blive.
Venner, ræk Haand over Graven hen;
Den Døde kommer ej mer igen,
Men Aanden taler fra Rummet,
Naar Læben her er forstummet.
Den taler os til i en ensom Stund,
Naar Tanken erindringsfuld knæler;
Bud da bringer en Mund,
Tysser os Smærten i Blund
Og med Billeder Drømmen besjæler.
Venner, den Drøm svinder aldrig hen;
Et Billed stiger bestandig igen
Fra Skønheds-Andagten inde:
En Drøm om en dejlig Kvinde.
P. Heise sets stanza 1

Zum Herbst hat der blühende Sommer...
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Danish (Dansk)
Zum Herbst hat der blühende Sommer gemußt,
was lebt, muß zum Grabe gehen.
Sorg' muß folgen auf Lust,
Schweige, du klopfende Brust!
Nur das ew'ge Gesetz bleibt bestehen.
Freund, reich die Hand übers Grab mir her;
Die Tote kommt ja zurück nicht mehr,
ihr Geist vom Raume sich zeiget,
wenn die Lippe hier nun auch schweiget.
