Herr, es ist Zeit. Der Sommer war sehr...
Language: German (Deutsch)
Herr, es ist Zeit. Der Sommer war sehr groß. Leg deinen Schatten auf die Sonnenuhren, und auf den Fluren lass die Winde los. Befiehl den letzten Früchten, voll zu sein; gib ihnen noch zwei südlichere Tage, dränge sie zur Vollendung hin, und jage die letzte Süße in den schweren Wein. Wer jetzt kein Haus hat, baut sich keines mehr. Wer jetzt allein ist, wird es lange bleiben, wird wachen, lesen, lange Briefe schreiben und wird in den Alleen hin und her unruhig wandern, wenn die Blätter treiben.
J. van Gilse sets stanzas 1-2
F. Agsteribbe sets stanza 2 in (at least) one setting - see below for more information

主，适时也。夏天曾经很强。
Language: Chinese (中文) after the German (Deutsch)
主，适时也。夏天曾经很强。 让你的阴影留在日晷上。 且让沙沙金风吹过草场。 令最后的水果变得完满； 给它们两天南方的温暖 催促着它们生长至极限 让浓酒具有最后的甘甜。 谁此时无房就不必再建。 会等很长久若此刻孤单， 就醒来，阅读，写长长的信件 也可在林荫道徘徊不前 不住游荡伴以落叶漫天。
