DAS VERGISSMEINNICHT
Vincenz Zusner
|
THE FORGET-ME-NOT
Vincenz Zusner
|
Das liebliche Vergissmeinnicht,
das sie mir scheidend gab,
es lässt von seinem Farbenlicht
und Scheinen gar nicht ab. |
The lovely forget-me-not,
Which she gave me when we parted,
Cannot stop from keeping its bright colour
and its shine. |
Und wisst Ihr, wie das kommen mag,
dass es nicht welken kann?
Ich feucht das Blümchen jeden Tag
mit meinen Tränen an. |
And do you know why it is
That it cannot fade?
I moisten the little flower every day
With my tears. |
