by Georg Trakl (1887 - 1914)
An Novalis (1. Fassung)
Language: German (Deutsch)
Ruhend in kristallner Erde, heiliger Fremdling Vom dunklen Munde nahm ein Gott ihm die Klage, Da er in seiner Blüte hinsank Friedlich erstarb ihm das Saitenspiel In der Brust, Und es streute der Frühling seine Palmen vor ihn, Da er mit zögernden Schritten Schweigend das nächtige Haus verließ.
