Seitdem dein Aug' in meines schaute
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): CAT DUT ENG FRE ITA
Seitdem dein Aug' in meines schaute,
Und Liebe, wie vom Himmel her,
Aus ihm auf mich herniedertaute,
Was böte mir die Erde mehr?
Ihr Bestes hat sie mir gegeben,
Und von des Herzens stillem Glück
Ward übervoll mein ganzes Leben
Durch jenen einen Augenblick.

Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch)
Depuis que ton regard a plongé dans le mien
Et que l'amour en est tombé sur moi,
Comme la rosée venant du ciel,
Que pourrait m'offrir de plus la terre ?
Elle m'a donné son meilleur
Et par le bonheur muet du cœur
Ma vie toute entière fut submergée
Grâce à cet instant.
