Poussière rose
Language: French (Français)
Une fine poussière rose Danse à l’horizon du matin. Un très doux orchestre lointain Susurre un air de Cimarose. Phœbé, comme une blanche rose, Se meurt dans le ciel incertain. Une fine poussière rose Danse à l’horizon du matin. Devant un Cassandre morose, Fuit un falbala de satin Qui traverse — en frôlant le thym Qu’une fraîche rosée arrose — Une fine poussière rose.
Confirmed with Albert Giraud, Héros et Pierrots, Paris, Librairie Fischbacher (Collection des poètes français de l’étranger), 1898, pages 157-158.

Morgen
Language: German (Deutsch) after the French (Français)
Ein rosig blasser, feiner Staub Tanzt früh am Morgen auf den Gräsern. Leis klingt ein Singen, hell und klar, Gleich fernem Himmelschor. Wie eine weisse Rose bleicht Der Morgenstern im Thau des Himmels. Ein rosig blasser, feiner Staub Tanzt auf den Gräsern früh. Ein zartes, junges Dirnchen flieht Scheu vor dem lüsternen Cassander. Die weissen Röckchen streifen leicht Die Blumen — und es hebt sich duftend Ein rosig blasser, feiner Staub.
