Jedem werke bin ich fürder tot. Dich mir nahzurufen mit den sinnen · Neue reden mit dir auszuspinnen · Dienst und lohn gewährung und verbot · Von allen dingen ist nur dieses not Und weinen dass die bilder immer fliehen Die in schöner finsternis gediehen – Wann der kalte klare morgen droht.

Chaque œuvre je suis dorénavant mort. Tu me réponds avec l'esprit, De nouvelles paroles pour penser avec toi, Service et salaire, autorisation et interdiction, De toutes les choses c'est maintenant seulement cette détresse Et ces larmes, que les images fuient toujours, Qui prospèrent dans l'agréable obscurité - Quand le froid et clair matin paraît.
