by Jens Peter Jacobsen (1847 - 1885)
Translation by Robert Franz Arnold (1872 - 1938)

Stjerner juble, Søen lyser
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
Our translations:  FRE
TOVE
 Stjerner juble, Søen lyser,
 Trykker sit bankende Hjerte mod Kyst,
 Løvet nynner, Duggen danser,
 Vinden sig kaster saa kaad til mit Bryst.
 Vejrhanen synger og Taarnene nikke,
 Svendene spanke med flammende Blikke,
 Ternerne dæmpe med Haanden forgæves
 Barmen, der sælsomt uroligen hæves.
 Roserne stirre med Haand over Bryn,
 Faklerne hjælpe det daarlige Syn.
 Skoven nu aabner sit Ly,
 Hundene glamme i By,
 Stien, i stedse nærmere Bølger,
 Vugger den dristige Rytter mod Havn,
 Og i den næste Stigning, som følger,
 Slynger den ham i min aabnede Favn.

Sterne jubeln, das Meer, es leuchtet (Tove)
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Danish (Dansk) 
Our translations:  CAT ENG FRE ITA
Tove:
 Sterne jubeln, das Meer, es leuchtet,
 preßt an die Küste sein pochendes Herz,
 Blätter, sie murmeln, es zittert ihr Tauschmuck,
 Seewind umfängt mich in mutigem Scherz,
 Wetterhahn singt, und die Turmzinnern nicken,
 Burschen stolzieren mit flammenden Blicken,
 wogende Brust voll üppigen Lebens
 fesseln die blühenden Dirnen vergebens,
 Rosen, sie mühn sich, zu spähn in die Ferne,
 Fackeln, sie lodern und leuchten so gerne,
 Wald erschließt seinen Bann zur Stell',
 horch, in der Stadt nun Hundegebel!
 Und die steigenden Wogen der Treppe 
 Tragen zum Hafen den fürstlichen Held,
 bis er auf alleroberster Staffel
 mir in die offenen Arme fällt.
