Jetzt kannst du's nimmer hören

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT ENG FRE

Jetzt kannst du's nimmer hören,
Wenn ich mit leisem Strich
Den Bogen an die Saiten leg
Und rufe dich.

Jetzt kannst du's nimmer sehen,
Wenn spät nach Mitternacht
Mein Ämplein noch bei Blatt und Stift
Im Erker wacht.

Und kannst die schönen, weißen
Teerosen, die im Garten stehn
Und die ich noch für dich gepflanzt,
Auch nimmer sehn.

Und doch, wenn meine Geige
Allein noch wach im Hause ist,
Verspür ich's oft, daß du, mein Lieb,
Mir nahe bist.

Ara no podràs sentir mai més

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

Ara no podràs sentir mai més
quan jo, amb un toc suau,
poso l’arquet damunt les cordes
i et crido.

Ara no podràs veure mai més
quan, a mitjanit, la meva petita llàntia, 
al costat del full i del llapis,
vetlla encara al mirador.

I les boniques, blanques
roses del te que són al jardí
i que jo per a tu vaig plantar,
tampoc les veuràs mai més.

I tanmateix, quan el meu violí
vetlla encara tot sol a la casa,
sento sovint que tu, amor meu,
ets al meu costat.
