Le tre sorelle
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Due colgon rose, ogni lor gesto spande novella grazia. Hanno i capelli sviolti e imporporate pelchinarsi i volti. L'altra sorella compone ghirlande. Ridono a tratti e gittosi dimande d'amore. Un erma, erma sembra che le ascolti, mentre il fresco mattino a gitta i folti rami sulle sue chiome venerande.

Die drei Schwestern Matches base text
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Italian (Italiano)
Zweie pflücken sich Rosen, jede Bewegung wechselt in neuer Anmut. Golden wallet ihr lockiges Haar, und gleich purpurnen Rosen glüh'n der Jugend Wangen. Drüben die Dritte, sie windet Girlanden. Scherze, Gelächter flattern und als Antwort manch Wörtchen von Liebe. Eine Herme scheint verstohlen den Schwestern zu lauschen, Abseits wo ein Lüftchen am Morgen leise umfächelt die schattenden Zweige über ihres Hauptes würd'gem Alter.
Composition:
- Set to music by Paul Juon (1872 - 1940), "Die drei Schwestern", op. 99 (Drei Lieder) no. 2 (1940) [ voice and piano ], Robert Lienau Verlag, also set in Italian (Italiano)
