by Rainer Maria Rilke (1875 - 1926)

Träume, die in deinen Tiefen wallen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Träume, die in deinen Tiefen wallen,
aus dem Dunkel lass sie alle los.
Wie Fontänen sind sie, und sie fallen
lichter und in Liederintervallen
ihren Schalen wieder in den Schoß.

Und ich weiß jetzt: wie die Kinder werde.
Alle Angst ist nur ein Anbeginn;
aber ohne Ende ist die Erde,
und das Bangen ist nur die Gebärde,
und die Sehnsucht ist ihr Sinn -
