Im Grünen

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG

Im Grün erwacht der frische Mut,
wenn blau der Himmel blickt.
Im Grünen da geht alles gut,
was je das Herz bedrückt.

Was suchst' der Mauern engen Raum,
du thöricht Menschenkind?
Komm, fühl hier unter'm Grünen Baum,
wie süss die Lüfte sind.

Wie holde Kindlein spielt um dich
ihr Odem wunderlieb,
und nimmt all' deinen Gram mit sich,
du weisst nicht wo er blieb.

A la natura

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

A la natura es desvetlla un vigorós coratge
quan el cel esguarda tot blau.
A la natura tot s’escau bé
el que abans oprimia el cor.

Què cerques entre les parets d’una angosta estança,
tu, estult fill de la humanitat?
Vine aquí, sent sota els verds arbres
com és de dolç l’oreig.

Com un encisador infant juga al teu entorn
el seu hàlit meravellós,
s’emporta tota la teva aflicció
i tu no saps on va a parar.
