Ich wandere einsam

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: ENG FRE

Ich wandere einsam,
Dann ahn ich dich,
Es rauscht im Baume,
Dann hör' ich dich.
 
Ich schließ die Augen,
Dann auch im [Traume]¹
Hör' ich dich flüstern,
Wie Laub am [Baum]².

Je marche seul

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

Je marche seul,
Alors je pense à toi,
Il y a du bruit dans les arbres,
Alors je t'entends.

Je ferme les yeux,
Alors dans mes rêves
Je t'entends chuchoter,
Comme les feuilles sur un arbre.
