Frühlingsnacht
Language: German (Deutsch)
Es spielen leise die Blüten
am duftenden Lindenbaum,
und draußen schimmert die Mondnacht
im schönsten Wundertraum.
Mich grüßt ein trautes Erinnern,
so lenzmild, mondesklar,
an jene schönen Tage,
wo einst ich glücklich war!

Spring night
Language: English after the German (Deutsch)
The blossoms are softly playing
on the fragrant linden tree,
and outdoors the moonlit night shimmers
in a wondrously beautiful dream.
A familiar memory speaks to me -
so mild, like spring, and bright, like the moon -
of those beautiful days
when once I was happy!
