Verborgenheit

Oh, world, let me be!
Do not entice me with gifts of love.
Let this heart in solitude have
all its bliss, all its pain!
What I mourn, I do not know -
it is an unknown pain.
Forever through tears I will see
the sun's love-light.
Often, I am scarcely conscious,
and a bright joys breaks
through the pain, thus pressing
delightfully into my breast.
Oh, world, let me be!
Do not entice me with gifts of love.
Let this heart in solitude have
all its bliss, all its pain!
(Translation by Roxanna Walitzki)
Laß, o Welt, o laß mich sein!
Locket nicht mit Liebesgaben,
Laßt dies Herz alleine haben
Seine Wonne, seine Pein!
Was ich traure, weiß ich nicht,
Es ist unbekanntes Wehe;
Immerdar durch Tränen sehe
Ich der Sonne liebes Licht.
Oft bin ich mir kaum bewußt,
Und die helle Freude zücket
Durch die Schwere, so mich drücket,
Wonniglich in meiner Brust.
Laß, o Welt, o laß mich sein!
Locket nicht mit Liebesgaben,
Laßt dies Herz alleine haben
Seine Wonne, seine Pein!
(Text by Eduard Friedrich Mörike)
