Frühlingstraum
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  AFR CAT CHI DUT ENG ENG ENG FIN FRE FRI HEB HEB ITA KOR LIT SPA SPA
Ich träumte von bunten Blumen,
So wie sie wohl blühen im Mai,
Ich träumte von grünen Wiesen,
Von lustigem Vogelgeschrei.

Und als die Hähne krähten,
Da ward mein Auge wach;
Da war es kalt und finster,
Es schrieen die Raben vom Dach.

Doch an den Fensterscheiben,
Wer [mahlte]1 die Blätter da?
Ihr lacht wohl über den Träumer,
Der Blumen im Winter sah?

Ich träumte von Lieb' um Liebe,
Von einer schönen Maid,
Von Herzen und von Küssen,
Von [Wonn']2 und Seligkeit.

Und als die Hähne krähten,
Da ward mein Herze wach;
Nun sitz' ich hier alleine
Und denke dem Traume nach.

Die Augen schließ' ich wieder,
Noch schlägt das Herz so warm.
Wann grünt ihr Blätter am Fenster?
Wann halt' ich [dich, Liebchen,]3 im Arm?

春梦
Language: Chinese (中文)  after the German (Deutsch) 
五彩花朵在我梦里,
宛若正当五月花开,
梦想着绿色的草地,
有趣的鸟叫声传来。

当公鸡开始打鸣,
我就睁开眼睛;
那里是又黑又冷,
乌鸦尖叫在屋顶。

在窗户的玻璃上,
谁将树叶儿描画?
你可能嘲笑做梦人,
在冬天见过鲜花?

我梦想着爱的回报,
来自美丽的女郎,
来自心灵和亲吻,
充满幸福和吉祥。

当公鸡开始打鸣,
我就睁开眼睛;
现在我独坐清冷
并思考梦想前程。

我再次闭上双眼,
依然热烈心跳。
何时窗上绿叶再现?
何时我能拥你在抱?
