Aus Heliopolis II
Language:
German
Fels auf Felsen hingewälzet,
Fester Grund und treuer Halt;
Wasserfälle, Windesschauer,
Unbegriffene Gewalt.
Einsam auf Gebirges Zinne,
Kloster wie auch Burgruine,
Grab' sie der Erinn'rung ein!
Denn der Dichter lebt vom Sein.
Atme du den heil'gen Äther
Schling die Arme um die Welt,
Nur dem Würdigen, dem Großen
Bleibte mutig zugesellt.
Laß die Leidenschaften sausen
Im metallenen Akkord,
Wenn die starken Stürme brausen,
Findest du das rechte Wort.

D'Héliopolis II
Language:
French
Roc posé sur roc,
Sol solide et soutien sûr ;
Chutes d'eau, giboulées,
Puissance incomprise.
Solitaires sur le sommet de la montagne,
Un monastère et un château en ruines,
Grave-les dans ta mémoire !
Car le poète vit par l'existence.
Respire l'éther sacré,
Enlace le monde de tes bras ;
Seulement ce qui a de la valeur, ce qui est grand,
Demeurent bravement réunis.
Que la passion siffle
En harmonie métallique,
Quand les tempêtes puissantes grondent,
Tu trouveras le mot juste.
