Spaziergang

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT ENG FRE NOR

  Sie wandeln durch des Waldes Grün.
Vögel singen und Blumen blühn.

  Ein blasser Mann und ein stilles Kind.
Sie schlürfen durstig den Frühlingswind.

  Und der Knabe [bleibt]¹ verwundert stehn:
"Ich glaub', ich kann die Mutter sehn."

  Sie starren in das junge Grün . . .
Vögel singen und Blumen blühn.

Passeig

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

Caminen pel verd bosc;
els ocells canten i s’obren les flors.

Un home pàl·lid i un nen tranquil
xuclen assedegats l’aire primaveral.

I el noi es para meravellat:
“Em penso que puc veure la mare.”

Miren fixament l’herba fresca.
Els ocells canten i s’obren les flors.
