Смотри, как роща зеленеет
Language: Russian (Русский)
Смотри, как роща зеленеет, Палящим солнцем облита — А в ней какою негой веет От каждой ветки и листа! Войдем и сядем над корнями Дерев, поимых родником, — Там, где, обвеянный их мглами, Он шепчет в сумраке немом.

O sieh des Hains goldgrünes Schimmern
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Russian (Русский)
O sieh des Hains goldgrünes Schimmern Im hellen, heissen Sonnenglast, Sieh nur das wonnig-süsse Flimmern Auf jedem Blatt, auf jedem Ast! O komm! Uns ruft in seinen Schatten Zur Rast der quellgetränkte Baum, Dort wo in seinem stillen Dämmer Die Wellen flüstern holden Traum. Und Träume webt auch hoch der Wipfel, Von Sommermittags-Glut umhaucht, Und manchmal nur ein Schrei des Adlers Aus ferner Höhe niedertaucht...
