Morgen!
(1894)
Op. 27 no.4
Morgen!
Und morgen wird die Sonne wieder scheinen Und auf dem Wege, den ich gehen werde, Wird uns, die Glücklichen, sie wieder einenInmitten 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 ...
Tomorrow!
And tomorrow the sun will shine again And on the path that I shall take,It will unite us, happy ones, again, Amid this same sun-breathing earth ...And to the shore, broad, blue-waved,We shall quietly and slowly descend,Speechless we shall gaze into each other’s eyes,And the speechless silence of bliss shall fall on us ...

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 ...
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 ...

And on the path that I shall take,
It will unite us, happy ones, again,
Amid this same sun-breathing earth ...
And to the shore, broad, blue-waved,
We shall quietly and slowly descend,
Speechless we shall gaze into each other’s eyes,
And the speechless silence of bliss shall fall on us ...
