Die braune Haide starrt mich an

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT ENG FRE

Die braune Haide starrt mich an,
   Am Himmel bangt die Nacht -
Ach! daß ich nicht vergessen kann,
   Hat mich in Leid gebracht.

Komm, wilder Sturm, zerreiße du,
   Der Wolken schwarzen Flor
Und sing mein wildes Herz in Ruh
   Mit deinem tollsten Chor!

L’ermàs terrós em mira fixament

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

L’ermàs terrós em mira fixament,
al cel amenaça la nit –
Ai! No puc pas oblidar el que
m’ha portat la pena.

Vine, tempesta salvatge, esquinça
el negre crespó dels núvols
i canta al meu cor furient d’apaivagar-se
amb el teu ferotge coral!
