Es träumen die Wolken, Die Sterne, der Mond, Die Bäume, die Vögel, Die Blumen, der Strom. Sie wiegen, Und schmiegen Sich tiefer zurück, [Zum thauigen Bette, Zur ruhigen Stätte]1, Zum heimlichen Glück. Doch Blättergesäusel Und Wellengekräusel Verkünden Erwachen. Denn ewig geschwinde, Unruhige Winde, Sie [stören und]2 fachen. Erst schmeichelnde Regung, Dann wilde Bewegung; Und dehnende Räume Verschlingen die Träume. Im Busen, im reinen, Bewahre die deinen; Es ströme dein Blut: Vor rasenden Stürmen Besonnen zu schirmen Die heilige Gluth.

Sognano le nuvole, le stelle, la luna, gli alberi, gli uccelli, i fiori, il fiume. Si cullano e si raccolgono in sé stessi, più profondamente, verso un sito di pace, verso un rugiadoso giaciglio, verso una interiore felicità. Ma il mormorare delle foglie e l’incresparsi delle onde ne annunciano il risveglio: perché eterni, veloci venti irrequieti sospirano agitandosi, dapprima con moto insinuante, poi con impulso selvaggio, e gli spazi che si dilatano imprigionano i sogni. Dentro un cuore incontaminato custodisci i tuoi: il tuo sangue fluisca, di fronte all’assalto delle tempeste, imperturbabile, per proteggere la fiaccola sacra.
