Spaziergang
Language: German (Deutsch)
Über weite Wiesen schweif ich Wo's aus tausend Keimen bricht, Gräser, Kräuter dicht an dicht, und mit Kinderblicken greif ich treulich so in's Licht, so in's Licht und in die Weite, und die Augen blenden mir, und mit diesen Händen hier brech'ich Blumen bunt zur seite, und die Blumen bring ich dir.

En cheminant
Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
Je parcours les vastes prairies, où les odorantes fleurs peignent la terre de mille couleurs, mes regardes enfantins rient ivres de la lumière, cherchent l'ombre sous les feuilles, et les yeux humides de pleurs, cherchent parmi les mille fleurs les plus belles que je cueille pur l'amie de mon coeur.
From the Wolff score.
