Im Garten am Seegestade
Uralte Bäume stehn,
In ihren hohen Kronen
Sind kaum die Vögel zu sehn.
Die Bäume mit hohen Kronen,
Die rauschen Tag und Nacht,
Die Wellen schlagen zum Strande,
Die Vöglein singen sacht.
Das gibt ein Musizieren
So süß, so traurig bang,
Als wie verlorner Liebe
Und ewiger Sehnsucht Sang.

Dans le jardin au bord de la mer
Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
Dans le jardin au bord de la mer
Il y a de très vieux arbres,
Dans leurs cimes élevées,
On peut à peine voir les oiseaux.
Les arbres aux hautes cimes
Bruissent jour et nuit,
Les vagues frappent sur la côte,
Les petits oiseaux chantent doucement.
la musique qu'ils font
Est si douce, si pleines de tristesse,
Comme le chant d'un amour perdu
Et d'une nostalgie sans fin.
