Original text and translations
English text
- 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…
- Und zu dem Strand, dem weiten, wogenblauen,
- werden wir still und langsam niedersteigen,
- stumm werden wir uns in die Augen schauen,
- und auf uns sinkt des Glückes stummes Schweigen…
English translation
- 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.
- 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.
