Verblühte Malven stehen
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): CAT ENG FRE
Verblühte Malven stehen
Den Gartenweg entlang,
Rosenblätter verwehen;
In einer fernen Laube
Tönt Laute und Gesang.
"Wir wollen nimmer reden,
Die Worte sind so schwer.
Da nimm von den Reseden
Noch einen Strauß zur Reise,
Bald gibt es keine mehr."
Nun ist sie weggegangen
Mit ihrem leichten Schritt
Und nimmt auf ihren Wangen
Mir alle meine Rosen
Und meinen Sommer mit.

Les malves estan marcides
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch)
Les malves estan marcides
al llarg del caminal del jardí,
pètals de rosa escampats;
En una llunyana glorieta
sonen cants i un llaüt.
“No volem parlar més,
els mots són tan feixucs.
Fes-te aquí encara de les resedes
un ram per al viatge,
aviat ja no n’hi haurà més.”
Adés, ella ha marxat
amb el seu pas lleuger
i s’emporta a les seves galtes
totes les meves roses
i el meu estiu.
