Geheimnis

In die dunkle Bergsschlucht
kehrt der Mond zurück.
Eine Stimme singt am Wassersturz:
O Geliebtes, deine höchste Wonne
und dein tiefster Schmerz
Sind mein Glück.

by Richard Fedor Leopold Dehmel (1863-1920)

Tajemnica

Znów zapadł księżyc
W ciemny górski jar.
Nad potokiem spiewa jakiś głos:
Scrce drogie, twa najwyźsza rozkosz,
twój najwię kszy ból
to mój czar

by Stanisław Barącz (1864-1936) , Text by Stanis/law Bara`cz
