Und hin und her im Tal, And here and there in the valleyErwacht die Nachtigall a nightingale awakensDann wieder alles grau und stille. but then all is gray and still again.O wunderbarer Nachtgesang, O wonderful nightsongVon fern im Land der Ströme Gang, from distant parts - the rushing of a   stream   Leis Schauern in den dunkeln and the soft shuddering in the dark   Bäumen      trees   Irrst die Gedanken mir, confuse my thoughts.Mein wirres Singen hier, My clamorous singing hereIst wie ein Rufen nur aus Träumen. is only like a cry from my dreams.My singing is a cry,only a cry from my dreams.The Sky Above the Roof & Prison(Poem by Paul Verlaine)The sky above the roof Le ciel est, par-dessus le toit,Is calm and sweet Si bleu, si calme!A tree above the roof Un arbre, par-dessus le toit,Bends in the heat Berce sa palme. A bell from out the blue La cloche, dans le ciel qu'on voit,Drowsily rings Doucement tinte.A bird from out the blue Un oiseau sur l'arbre qu'on voitPlaintively sings Chante sa plainte. Ah God! A life is here Mon Dieu, mon Dieu, la vie est làSimple and fair Simple et tranquille.Murmurs of strife are here Cette paisible rumeur-làLost in the air Vient de la ville. Why dost thou weep Qu'as-tu fait, ô toi que voilàOh, heart Pleurant sans cesse,Poured out in tears? Dis, qu'as-tu fait, toi que voilà,What hast thou done De ta jeunesse?Oh, heartWith thy spent years? Drie LiederenI. Schlaflied I.

Ohne dass ich hier wache, und Without me lying here awake, and   Worte, beinah wie    laying down, almost like   Augenlider, auf deine Brüste, auf    eyelids, tender words upon your   deine Glieder, niederlege, auf    breasts, upon your limbs, laying   deinen Mund?       down, upon your mouth?    Ohne dass ich dich verschliess, und Without me locking you up   dich allein mit Deinem    tight and leaving you with what   lasse, wie einen Garten mit    is yours, a garden overflowing   einer Masse von Melissen und    with star anise and lemon   Sternanis?       balm?
