Sommerbild
Language:
German
Ich sah des Sommers letzte Rose [stehn]1,
Sie war, als ob sie bluten könne, rot;
Da sprach ich [schauernd]2 im Vorübergehn:
So weit im Leben, ist zu nah am Tod!
Es regte sich kein Hauch am heißen Tag,
Nur leise strich ein weisser Schmetterling;
Doch, ob auch kaum die Luft sein Flügelschlag
Bewegte, sie empfand es und verging.

L'ultima rosa
Language:
Italian
Languiva il sol su l'ultima rosa alfin
Poichè fecela di sangue inporporar;
Le sussurrai, passandole vicin:
"Sei troppo vaga, presto dovrai mancar!"
Nell' aura calma e piena di tepor
Leggera una farfalletta di lì passò;
L'aluzze non toccaro il fior
Ma questo tremando si sfogliò.
