Translations

Il mio bel foco

My fire of love,
however far 
or near I might be,
never changing,
will always be burning 
for you, dear eyes.

That flame which kindled me
is so pleased with my soul
that it never dies.
And if fate entrusts me to you,
lovely rays of my beloved sun,
my soul will never be able
to long for any other light.

In Waldeseinsamkeit

I sat at your feet
in woodland solitude;
a breath of wind, a yearning,
moved through the broad treetops.

I lowered in silent struggle
my head into your lap,
and clasped my trembling hands
around your knees.

The sun went down,
all the daylight faded,
far, far, far away
a nightingale sang.
