Hain in diesen paradiesen

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT ENG FRE ITA

Hain in diesen paradiesen
Wechselt ab mit blütenwiesen
Hallen · buntbemalten fliesen.
Schlanker störche schnäbel kräuseln
Teiche die von fischen schillern ·
Vögel-reihen matten scheines
Auf den schiefen firsten trillern
Und die goldnen binsen säuseln –
Doch mein traum verfolgt nur eines.

Les bosquets dans ces Paradis

Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)

Les bosquets dans ces Paradis
Alternent avec les prairies en fleurs,
Les galeries, les dalles peintes en couleur,
Le bec mince des cigognes plisse
L'étang qui brille de poissons,
Les vols d'oiseaux sombres semblent
Du faîte incliné lancer des trilles
Et les joncs dorés murmurent -
Cependant mon rêve poursuit un rêve.
