Durch schwankende Wipfel
Language: German (Deutsch)
Durch schwankende Wipfel Schießt [güldener]1 Strahl, Tief unter den Gipfeln Das [neblige]2 Tal. Fern hallt es [am]3 Schlosse, Das Waldhorn ruft, Es wiehern die Rosse In die Luft, in die Luft! Bald Länder und Seen [Durch]4 Wolkenzug Tief schimmernd zu sehen [In schwindelndem]5 Flug, Bald Dunkel wieder Hüllt Reiter und Roß, O [Lieb']6, o Liebe [So]7 laß mich los! - Immer weiter und weiter Die Klänge ziehn, Durch Wälder und Heiden Wohin, ach wohin? Erquickliche Frische, Süß-schaurige Lust! Hoch flattern die Büsche, Frei schlägt die Brust.

Entre brancatges oscil·lants
Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)
Entre brancatges oscil·lants es precipita el raig daurat, des dels cims cap a la profunda vall boirosa. Ressona en el castell la crida dels corn de caça, els corsers renillen en l’aire, en l’aire! Aviat terres i mars es poden veure lluir en vol vertiginós entre nuvolades. Aviat una nova foscor cobreix cavallers i corsers, oh amor, oh amor, deixa’m anar!... Els sons empenyen més i més lluny, entre boscos i prades, cap a on, ai, cap a on? Frescor reconfortadora, plaer horripilant i dolç! Alts aletegen els matolls, lliure batega el pit!
