Song
By Stefan George
Born 1868 Buedesheim (near Bingen), died 1933 Locarno

Translation: Lied

On brooklets edge
The lone and early,
The hazel, are in bloom.
A bird chirps low
On chilly plain.
A glowing strikes us,
Mildly warm,
And flashes and fades.
The field is bare,
The tree but grey . . .
Flowers still
May spread us spring.
