Ich schlief am Blütenhügel
Language: German (Deutsch)
Our translations: FRE
Ich schlief am Blütenhügel, Hart an des Pfades Rand. Da lieh der Traum mir Flügel Ins goldne Fabelland. Erwacht, mit trunknen Blicken, Wie wer aus Wolken fiel, Gewahr ich noch im Rücken Den Sänger mit dem Spiel. Er schwindet um die Bäume, Noch hör ich fernen Klang. Ob der die Wunderträume Mir in die Seele sang?

Сон
Language: Russian (Русский) after the German (Deutsch)
Заснув на холме луговом, Вблизи большой дороги, Я унесен был легким сном Туда, где жили боги. Но я проснулся наконец И смутно озирался: Дорогой шёл младой певец И с пеньем удалялся. Вдали пропал за рощей он - Но струны все звенели. Ах! не они ли дивный сон Мне на душу напели?
