Nun ist's vollbracht: Des Herbstes Fäden weben Die Zauberschleier über's kahle Feld, Den Kranichzug seh' ich gen Süden schweben, Der Wald wie Gold! Wie traumesstill die Welt! Wie traumesschön! -- Ist schön nicht Vollenthüllung, Des ewig jungen Lebens Ziel und Sein? Ja, du bist schön, o Herbst, du beut'st Erfüllung, Fest blick ich dir in Aug' und Herz hinein.
Confirmed with Neue Gedichte von L. Rafael, Leipzig: Druck und Verlag von Breitkopf und Härtel, 1894, page 131.

Now it is finished: The threads of autumn weave The magical veil over the barren field, I see the sedge of cranes floating southwards, The forest like gold! How dreamily silent the world! How dreamily beautiful! Is not full revelation beautiful, The goal and being of eternally young life? Yes, you are beautiful, oh autumn, you offered fulfilment, I gaze steadfastly into your eyes and your heart.
