Die fernen, fernen Berge

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT

Die fernen, fernen Berge 
mit ihren Nebelschleiern
seh' ich von meinem Fenster 
leuchten im Frühlingsglanz.

Ein matter, grüner Schimmer 
über [Buschen]¹ und Bäumen,
und meine arme Seele, 
zitternd von Frühlingsleid.

[Könnt']² ich nur einmal schauen,
nur einmal noch deine Augen
jene [müden]³, blauen Sterne, 
die ich [zu]⁴ sehr geliebt!

Les llunyanes, llunyanes muntanyes

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

Les llunyanes, llunyanes muntanyes
amb llurs vels de boirim
les veig de la meva finestra
resplendir en l’esclat de la primavera.

Un somort, verd besllum
damunt matolls i arbres
i la meva pobra ànima,
tremolant de la sofrença de la primavera.

Ai, si pogués veure encara una vegada,
només una vegada encara els teus ulls,
aquelles dolces, blaves estrelles
que jo tant havia estimat!
