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

Our translations: ENG FRE

Es zürnt das Meer, es zürnt die Felsenküste,
Es zürnen alle Sterne mit der Sonne,
Es zürnt mit mir, der sonst mich freundlich grüßte;
Die bösen Zungen haben's angesponnen.
Könnt' ich mit Feuersglut sie all verheeren,
Wie Flammen dürres Haidekraut verzehren!

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

La mer est irritée, la côte rocheuse est irritée
Toutes les étoiles et le soleil,
Irrité contre moi, lui qui naguère me saluait gentiment ;
Les mauvaises langues en sont la cause.
Que ne puis-je les ravager, avec l'ardeur du feu,
Comme les flammes consumant la bruyère !
