Schneeglöckchen

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT CHI DUT ENG FRE ITA SPA

Der Schnee, der gestern noch in Flöckchen
  Vom Himmel fiel,
Hängt nun geronnen heut als Glöckchen
  Am zarten Stiel.

Schneeglöckchen läutet, was bedeutet's
  Im stillen Hain?
O komm geschwind! Im Haine läutet's
  Den Frühling ein.

O kommt, ihr Blätter, Blüt' und Blume,
  Die ihr noch träumt,
All zu des Frühlings Heiligtume!
  Kommt ungesäumt!

El lliri de neu

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

La neu que en petits flocs encara ahir
queia del cel,
avui penja congelada en campanetes
de les tendres tiges.

Les campanetes del lliri de neu sonen,
què vol dir això al bosc silenciós?
Oh, vine de pressa! Al bosc ja ressona
l’arribada de la primavera.

Oh, veniu, fulles, poncelles i flors
que encara esteu somiant,
veniu totes al santuari de la primavera!
Veniu sense trigar!
