Available translation(s): CAT DUT ENG FRE FRE ITA SPA
Es [tönt]1 ein voller Harfenklang
Den Lieb' und Sehnsucht schwellen,
Er dringt zum Herzen tief und bang
Und läßt das Auge quellen.
O rinnet, Tränen, nur herab,
O schlage Herz, mit Beben!
Es sanken Lieb' und Glück ins Grab,
Verloren ist [mein]2 Leben!

Le son d'une harpe ...
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch)
Le son généreux d'une harpe s'élève,
Amplifié encore par l'amour et la nostalgie.
Il touche mon cœur profondément et l'inquiète,
Et embue les yeux de larmes.
Ô, coulez, mes larmes,
Bats, ô mon cœur, à tout rompre !
L'amour et le bonheur ont sombré dans la tombe,
La vie est perdue !
