Ich und du

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT ENG FRE

Rebhahnruf und Glockenlaut,
Ich und du im Heidekraut.

Wandernde Marienseide
Macht den Kuppler für uns beide.

Weiße Fäden uns umschlingen,
Glocken läuten, Glocken klingen,

Immer leiser, immer linder,
Ich und du -- zwei Sonntagskinder.

Jo i tu

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

Crides de perdiu i so de campanes,
jo i tu en la boira.

Els fils de la seda de Maria que floten
formen un lligam entre nosaltres dos.

Fils blancs ens abracen,
campanes toquen, campanes sonen.

Sempre més fluix, sempre més dolç,
jo i tu -- dos infants amb bona estrella.
