by Karl Joachim ("Achim") Friedrich Ludwig von Arnim (1781 - 1831)

Vom Nachen getragen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
   Vom Nachen getragen,
Mein Nachen [versinket]1,
Mein Leben verklaget,
Die Zukunft [ertrinket]2.
 
   Im Schilf ist ein Rauschen,
Im Grase ein Säuseln,
Die Vögel, sie lauschen,
Die Wellen, sie kreiseln,
 
   Die Sterne, sie schießen,
Und grüßen die Quellen,
Die Quellen, sie fließen
Zum Meere als Wellen.
 
   Da finden sich wieder,
Die hier sich verloren,
Der Liebe Gebrüder
Im Thale geboren.
 
   Des Schaumes Gefieder
Erglänzt im Gesange,
Ich höre die Lieder,
Ich athme schon bange.
