Sterne mit den goldnen Füßchen
Language: German (Deutsch)
Sterne mit den goldnen Füßchen, Wandeln droben bang und sacht, Daß sie nicht die Erde wecken Die da schläft im Schoß der Nacht. Horchend stehn die stummen Wälder, Jedes Blatt ein grünes Ohr! Und der Berg, wie träumend streckt er Seinen Schattenarm hervor. Doch was rief [dort]1? In mein Herze Dringt der Töne Widerhall. War es der Geliebten Stimme, Oder [nur]2 die Nachtigall?

Estrelles amb els peuets daurats
Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)
Estrelles amb els peuets daurats es passegen allà dalt temoroses i en compte, per no despertar la terra que dorm al cor de la nit. Els boscos, muts, estan a l’escolta, cada fulla és una orella verda! I la muntanya, com en somnis, estén l’ombra del seu braç endavant. Però qui crida allà? L’eco d’aquesta veu ressona al meu cor. Era la veu de la meva estimada o potser només un rossinyol?
