Der Morgen war von dir erfüllt...

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: FRE

Der Morgen war von dir erfüllt...
Dein Bild, von Tränen oft verhüllt,
umfloß mich wie ein lichter Schein;
du warst mein Morgenlicht allein.
Die Sonne schien mir ins Gesicht,
ich sah vor dir die Sonne nicht,
erblindet lag der Augen Au
von dir, als meinem Himmelstau.

Le matin était empli de toi ...

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

Le matin était empli de toi ...
Ton image, souvent voilée de larmes
passait autour de moi comme une légère clarté ;
tu étais ma lumière du matin.
Le soleil éclairait mon visage,
Face à toi je ne voyais pas le soleil,
aveuglé par toi, par une rosée céleste
sur le champ de mes yeux.
