Translations

Nous Voyons que les Hommes

Men, plainly enough, all think it a feather in their cap if they make love.

It is foolish of us women to speak ill of love:

what is seen as praiseworthy for them is dishonourable for us

and an inexcusable fault; morality is harsh.

Nature has more sense than they do: it has given us a body

better designed than men’s for amorous practices,

yet to us they are more forbidden.

Kyrie Eleison

Lord, have mercy.

Christ, have mercy.

Lord, have mercy.

Die Lotosblume

The Lotus flower fears before the sun’s splendour,

and with drooping head she dreamily awaits the night.

The moon, he is her lover. He wakes her with his light

and to him she happily unveils her devoted flower-face.

She blooms and glows and shines and stares mute in the heavens.

She exhales and weeps and trembles with love and love's pain.

Ein Jüngling liebt ein Mädchen

A young man loves a girl, who has chosen another man,

the other loves yet another and has gotten married to her.

The girl takes, out of resentment, the first, best man

who crosses her path; the young man is badly off.

It is an old story but remains eternally new,

and for him to whom it has just happened it breaks his heart in two.
