Sehnsucht

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT ENG FRE

Fern und ferner schallt der Reigen.
Wohl mir, um mich her ist Schweigen
    Auf der Flur.
Zu dem vollen Herzen nur
Will nicht Ruh' sich neigen.

Horch! die Nacht schwebt durch die Räume,
Ihr Gewand durchrauscht die Bäume
    Lispelnd leis'.
Ach! so schweifen liebeheiß
Meine Wünsch' und Träume.

Nostàlgia

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

Lluny i més lluny ressona el brogit de la dansa.
Millor per a mi, al meu voltant tot és silenci
a la prada.
Només al meu enter cor
la pau no vol atansar-se.

Escolteu! La nit sura a través dels espais,
la seva vestidura fa fressa a través dels arbres,
xiuxiuejant suaument.
Ai! Així erren ardents d’amor
els meus desigs i els meu somnis.
