by Christian Morgenstern (1871 - 1914)

Frühlingsregen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT CHI CHI ENG FRE
Regne, regne, Frühlingsregen,
weine durch die stille Nacht!
Schlummer liegt auf allen Wegen,
nur [dein treuer Dichter]1 wacht ...
lauscht dem leisen, warmen Rinnen
aus dem dunklen Himmelsdom,
und es löst in [ihm]2 tiefinnen
selber sich ein heißer Strom,
läßt sich halten nicht und hegen,
quillt heraus in sanfter Macht ...
Ahndevoll auf stillen Wegen
geht der Frühling durch die Nacht.
