Translations
Ach, Ich fühl’s
Ach, ich fühl’s, es ist verschwunden,
Ewig hin der Liebe Glück!
Nimmer kommt ihr Wonnestunde
meinem Herzen mehr zurück!
Sieh’, Tamino, diese Thränen,
Fliessen, Trauter, dir allein!
Fühlst du nicht der Liebe Sehnen,
so wird Ruh’ im Tode sein!
Ah, I Feel It
Ah, I feel it, it has disappeared
forever gone, love’s happiness!
Nevermore will come the hour of bliss
back to my heart!
See, Tamino, these tears,
flowing, Beloved, for you alone!
If you don’t feel the longing of love
then there will be peace in death!
Non mi dir
Crudele? Ah, no, mio bene! Troppo
mi spiace allontanarti un ben che
lungamente la nostr’alma desia!
Ma il mondo, oh Dio! Non sedur
la mia costanza del sensibil mio core!
Abbastanza per te mi parla amore.
Do Not Tell Me
Cruel? Ah no, my love, I am too unhappy
at having to put off the joy which
we have both desired for so long.
But what would people say! Do not try
to shake the resolution of my poor heart.
Your love speaks for you!
Non mi dir, bell’idol mio,
che son io crudel con te.
Tu ben sai quant’io t’amai,
tu conosci la mia fé.
Calma, calma il tuo tormento,
se di duol non vuoi ch’io mora!
Do not tell me, my true love,
that I am cruel to you.
You know well how much I love you,
you know to whom I am pledged.
Calm your anguish,
if you do not wish me to die of grief!
Forse un giorno il cielo ancora
Sentirà pietà di me.
Perhaps someday Heaven
will have pity on me.
La dame d’André
André ne connaît pas la dame
Qu’il prend aujourd’hui par la main.
A-t-elle un coeur à lendemains
Et pour le soir a-t-elle une âme?
Au retour d’un bal campagnard
S’en allait-elle en robe vague
Chercher dans le meules la bague
Des fiançailles du hassard?
A-t-elle eu peur, la nuit venue,
Guettée par les ombres d’hier.
Dans son jardin lorsque l’hiver
Andre’s ladyfriend
André does not know the woman
whose hand he takes today.
Has she a heart for the future,
and for evening has she a soul?
Returning from a country dance,
did she in her loose-fitting gown
go and seek in the haystacks
the ring of random betrothal?
Was she afraid, when night fell,
watched by the ghosts of the past,
in her garden, when winter
Entrait par la grande avenue?
Il l’a aimée pour sa couleur
Pour sa bonne humeur de Dimanche.
Pâlira-t-elle aux feuilles blanches
De son album des temps meilleurs?
entered by the wide avenue?
He loved her for her complexion,
for her Sunday good humour.
Will she fade on the blank pages
of his album of better days?
Violon
Couple amoureux aus accents méconnus
Le violon et son joueur me plaisent.
Ah! j’aime ces gémissements tendus
Sur la corde des malaises.
Aux accords sur les cordes des pendus
À l’heure où les Lois se taisent
Le coeur en forme de fraise
S’offre à l’amour comme un fruit inconnu.
Violin
Loving couple of misapprehended sounds
Violin and player please me.
Ah! I love these long wailings
Stretched on the string of disquiet.
To the sound of strung-up chords
At the hour when Justice is silent
The heart shaped like a strawberry
Gives itself to love like an unknown fruit.
Fleurs
Fleurs promises, fleurs tenues dans tes bras,
Fleurs sorties des parenthèses d’un pas,
Qui t’apportait ces fleurs l’hiver
Saupoudrés du sable des mers?
Sable de tes baisers,
fleurs des amours fanées
Les beaux yeux sont de cendre et
dans la cheminée
Un coeur enrubanné de plaints
Brûle avec ses images saintes.
Flowers
Promised flowers, flowers held in your arms,
Flowers from a step’s parentheses,
Who brought you these flowers in winter
Sprinkled with the sea’s sand?
Sand of your kisses,
flowers of faded loves
Your lovely eyes are ashes
and in the hearth
A moan-beribboned heart
Burns with its sacred images.
Morgen
Und morgen wird
die Sonne wieder scheinen,
und auf dem Wege, den ich gehen werde
wird uns, die Glücklichen, sie wieder einen
inmitten dieser sonnenatmenden Erde…
Tomorrow
Tomorrow again
Will shine the sun
And on my sunlit path of earth
Unite us again, as it has done,
And give our bliss another birth.
Und zu dem Strand,
Dem weiten, wogenblauen,
Serden wir still und langsam niedersteigen,
Stumm werden wir uns
In die Augen schauen, und auf uns sinkt
des Glückes stummes Schweigen…
The spacious beach,
Under wave-blue skies
We’ll reach by descending soft and slow,
And mutely gaze
in each other’s eyes, as over us
rapture’s great hush will flow.
Selige Nacht
Im Arm der Liebe schliefen wir selig ein,
Am offnen Fenster lauschte
der Sommerwind,
Und unsrer Atemzüge Frieden
Trug er hinaus in die helle Mondnacht.—
Blissful Night
In the arms of love we fell blissfully asleep;
At the open window
the summer wind listened
And carried the peacefulness of our breath
Out into the bright, moonlit night.
Und aus dem Garten tastete zagend sich
Ein Rosenduft an unserer Liebe Bett
Und gab uns wundervolle Träume,
Träume des Rausches —so reich an
Sehnsucht!
And out of the garden, feeling its way randomly,
The scent of roses came to our bed of love
And gave us wonderful dreams,
Dreams of intoxication, rich with
yearning.
Ich danke Fräulein
Arabella:
Aber der Richtigewenn’s einen gibt für mich
auf dieser Weltder wird einmal dastehn, da vor mir,
und wird mich anschauen und ich ihn,
und keine Zweifel warden sein
und keine Fragen,
und selig, und selig werd’ich sein
und gehorsam wie ein Kind.
Arabella:
But the right one –
if there is one for me
in this world
will stand there once, before me
and will look at me and I him
and no doubt will be,
and no questions
and blessed, and blessed I shall be
and obedient as a child.
Zdenka:
Ich weiβ nicht wie du bist, ich weiβ nicht,
ob du Recht hastdazu hab’ ich dich viel zu lieb!
Ich will nur, daβ du glücklich wirst mit einem,
der’s verdient! Und helfen will ich dir dazu.
So hat ja die Prophetin es gesehn,
sie ganz im Licht, und ich hinab ins Dunkel.
Sie ist so schön und so lieb- ich werde gehn,
und noch im Gehn werd’ich dich segnen,
werd ich dich segnen, meine Schwester.
Zdenka:
I know not what you want, I do not know,
Whether you are right,
this has gone too far!
I just want you to be happy with a man
You deserve! And I will help you to do so.
So yes, the fortune teller has seen it,
They have light to see, and I am in the dark.
My sister is so beautiful and lovely, I will go
and as I leave, I'll bless you
I bless you, my sister.
