Hier ist Friede

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT ENG FRE ITA

Hier ist Friede. Hier weine ich mich aus über alles!
Hier löst sich mein unfaßbares, unermeßliches Leid,
das mir die Seele verbrennt ...
Siehe, hier sind keine Menschen, keine Ansiedlungen.
Hier ist Friede! Hier tropft Schnee leise in Wasserlachen ...

La pace abita qui

Language: Italian (Italiano) after the German (Deutsch)

La pace abita qui. Qui sopra ogni cosa io libero il pianto!
Qui si scioglie il mio inconcepibile, smisurato dolore,
che l'anima tutta mi brucia...
Vedi, qui non ci sono persone, né dimore.
La pace abita qui! Qui lentamente la neve si scioglie nelle pozze...
