Lied
Language:
German
Ich weiß nicht, wie's geschieht,
daß, was mein Herz auch singt,
mit immerdar ins Lied
ein Klang der Liebe klingt:
Daß ich nicht schweigen kann
von ihrem Paradies,
wie wohl aus seinem Bann
man lange mich verstieß.
Dann ah'n ich selber kaum:
Sing' ich von künft'gem Glück?
Sing' ich den süßen Traum
der Jugend mir zurück?

Fond heart, oh, tell me, pray
Language:
English
Fond heart, oh, tell me, pray,
why whate'er thou mayst sing,
through all thy pleading lay
a note of love doth ring:
Why I can ne'er forget
our Paradise of yore,
where once our spirits met,
and which is mine no more.
A vision now 'twould seem:
Foretells it future bliss?
Recalls it that fond dream
of youth and love's first kiss?
