Available translation(s): ENG FRE
Primel und Stern und Syringe, von einsamer Kerze beleuchtet,
Hier im Glase, wie fremd blickt ihr, wie feenhaft, her!
Sonne schien, als die Liebste euch trug, da wart ihr so freudig:
Mitternacht summt nun um euch, ach! und kein Liebchen ist hier.

La nuit à l'écritoire
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch)
Primevère, aster, seringat éclairés par une unique chandelle,
dans cette vitre, comme vous semblez bizarres, féériques !
Le soleil brillait quand la bien-aimée vous a apportés, vous étiez si gais :
mais maintenant, minuit vibrionnant vous cerne, et il n'y a pas de bien-aimée.
