Es bellen die Hunde, es rasseln die Ketten. [Die Menschen schnarchen]1 in ihren Betten, Träumen sich Manches, was sie nicht haben, Thun sich im Guten und Argen erlaben: Und Morgen früh ist Alles zerflossen. - Je nun, sie haben ihr Theil genossen, Und hoffen, was sie noch übrig ließen, Doch wieder zu finden auf ihren Kissen. Bellt mich nur fort, ihr wachen Hunde, Laßt mich nicht ruhn in der Schlummerstunde! Ich bin zu Ende mit allen Träumen - Was will ich unter den Schläfern säumen?

Les chiens aboient, les chaînes cliquettent ; Les gens ronflent en leurs lits, Nombre d'entre eux rêvent à ce qu'ils n'ont pas, Se délectent de bonnes et de mauvaises choses. Et dès le lendemain tout a disparu, Cependant ils ont savouré leur part Et espèrent que ce qu'ils ont laissé, Ils le retrouveront à nouveau sur leur oreiller. Aboyez après moi, vous les chiens éveillés, Ne me laissez pas reposer en ces heures de sommeil ! Je suis arrivé au bout de tous les rêves. Pourquoi m'attarder avec les dormeurs ?
