Über'n Garten durch die Lüfte
Language: German (Deutsch)
[Über'n]1 Garten durch die Lüfte Hört' ich Wandervögel ziehn, Das bedeutet Frühlingsdüfte, Unten fängt's schon an zu blühn. Jauchzen möcht' ich, möchte weinen, Ist mir's doch, als könnt's nicht sein! [Alte]2 Wunder wieder scheinen Mit dem [Mondesglanz]3 herein. Und der Mond, die Sterne sagen's, Und im [Träumen]4 rauscht's der Hain, Und die Nachtigallen schlagen's: Sie ist deine! Sie ist dein!

Notte di primavera
Language: Italian (Italiano) after the German (Deutsch)
Sopra il giardino, per l'aria, sentii passare gli uccelli migratori, vuol dire profumi di primavera, quaggiù tutto comincia a fiorire. Vorrei esultare, vorrei piangere, no, non è possibile! Antichi prodigi splendono ancora al chiarore della luna. E la luna, le stelle lo dicono, e nel sogno mormora il boschetto, e gli usignoli lo cantano: lei è tua, sì, lei è tua!
