by Hermann Hesse (1877 - 1962)

Eine Glocke läutet
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT ENG FRE
Eine Glocke läutet
Im Grund fernab,
Läutet und bedeutet
Ein frisches Grab.
 
Ein Lautenschlagen
Vom andern Tal
Bringt hergetragen
Der Wind zumal.
 
Mir aber will bedeuten:
Liedsang und Sterbeläuten
Ist recht für einen Wandrer
Zusammengestimmt.
 
Mich wundert, ob ein andrer
Die beiden zumal vernimmt?
