Nun quill aus meiner Seele immerfort du mächtig wilder Bilderschwall. Halt ich dich nicht mit starkem Jubelschall, bann' ich dich, Strom, mit schlichtem Siegerwort. Daß alle Well'n vergeh'n, die Fluten klar zum ruhereichen See sich breiten, darin die Welt und blaue Himmelweiten mir glänzen still verklärt unwandelbar.

Now well up out of my soul evermore you mighty, wild splash of images. If I cannot hold you back with strong, jubilant shouts, I'll bind you, Stream, with a simple charm. Let all the waves disappear and the clear flood spread out toward the peaceful ocean, in which the world and the blue expanse of heaven glimmer silently, transfigured and unvarying.
