Sängers Vorüberziehen

Ich schlief am Blütenhügel,
Hart an des Pfades Rand.
Da lieh der Traum mir Flügel
Ins goldne Fabelland.
 
Erwacht, mit trunknen Blicken,
Wie wer aus Wolken fiel,
Gewahr ich noch im Rücken
Den Sänger mit dem Spiel.
 
Er schwindet um die Bäume,
Noch hör ich fernen Klang.
Ob der die Wunderträume
Mir in die Seele sang?

by Johann Ludwig Uhland (1787-1862) , "Sängers Vorüberziehen", from Balladen und Romanzen, published 1812

Son

 Zasnuv na kholme lugovom,
 Vblizi bol'shoj dorogi,
 Ja unesen byl legkim snom
 Tuda, gde zhili bogi.

 No ja prosnulsja nakonec
 I smutno oziralsja:
 Dorogoj shjol mladoj pevec
 I s pen'jem udaljalsja.

 Vdali propal za roshchej on -
 No struny vse zveneli.
 Akh! ne oni li divnyj son
 Mne na dushu napeli?
