In diesen welken Tagen,
wo Alles bald zu Ende ist,
sturmzerfetzte Sonnenblumen
über dunkle Zäune ragen,
Wolken jagen
und den Boden flammenfarbne
Blätterstürze schlagen:
da müssen wir nun tragen,
was wir uns mußten sagen
an diesen welken Tagen.

In these wilted days,
when everything is soon at an end,
when sunflowers, tattered by storms
loom over dark fences,
clouds race
and the ground is being beaten
by flame-coloured leaf falls:
thus we now must bear
that which we had to say to each other
on these wilted days.
