Translations
Come Raggio di Sol Come raggio di sol mite e sereno, Sovre placidi flutti si riposa, Mentre del mare nel profondo seno Sta la tempesta ascosa: Così riso talor gaio e pacato Di contento, di gioia un labbro infiora, Mentre nel suo segreto il cor piagato S’angoscia e si martora. Wie Melodien zieht es Mir Wie Melodien zieht es Mir leise durch den Sinn, Wie Frühlingsblumen blüht es, Und schwebt wie Duft dahin. Doch kommt das Wort und faßt es Und führt es vor das Aug’, Wie Nebelgrau erblaßt es Und schwindet wie ein Hauch. Und dennoch ruht im Reime Verborgen wohl ein Duft, Den mild aus stillem Keime Ein feuchtes Auge ruft. | Like a sunbeam, mild and serene, upon placid waves seeks repose, whilst within the sea’s deep clutches a tempest lies hidden: So a blithe and calm smile sometimes lets one’s lips exude contentment, midst the hidden sufferings of a wounded heart. It Moves like a Melody It moves like a melody, Gently through my mind; It blossoms like spring flowers And wafts away like fragrance. But when it is captured in words, And placed before my eyes, It turns pale like a gray mist And disappears like a breath. And yet, remaining in my rhymes There hides still a fragrance, Which mildly from the quiet bud My moist eyes call forth. |
