Track Name: Epitaph: Sterne,
In des Himmels Ferne!
Die mit Strahlen bessrer Welt
Ihr die Erdendämmrung hellt;
Schau'n nicht Geisteraugen
Von euch erdenwärts,
Daß sie Frieden hauchen
Ins umwölkte Herz?

Sterne,
In des Himmels Ferne!
Träumt sich auch in jenem Raum
Eines Lebens flücht'ger Traum ?
Hebt Entzücken, Wonne,
Trauer, Wehmut, Schmerz,
Jenseit unsrer Sonne
Auch ein fühlend Herz?

Sterne,
In des Himmels Ferne!
Winkt ihr nicht schon Himmelsruh'
Mir aus euren Fernen zu?
Wird nicht einst dem Müden
Auf den goldnen Au'n
Ungetrübter Frieden
In die Seele tau'n?

Sterne,
In des Himmels Ferne,
Bis mein Geist den Fittich hebt
Und zu eurem Frieden schwebt,
Hang' an euch mein Sehnen
Hoffend, glaubevoll!
O, ihr holden, schönen,
Könnt ihr täuschen wohl?

///

Stars,
In distant heaven!
Who brighten with rays of a better world
Earth’s twilight;
Do not your spectral eyes
Gaze down on earth,
Breathing peace
Into the darkened heart?

Stars,
In distant heaven!
Does not life’s fleeting dream
Also dream up there in space?
Does not rapture, bliss,
Sadness, gloom, pain,
Beyond our sun
Also revive a feeling heart?

Stars,
In distant heaven!
Do you not promise me heavenly peace
From your distant realm?
Will not unalloyed peace
One day thaw the hearts of the weary
On the golden meadows?

Stars,
In distant heaven!
Till my spirit spreads its wings
And soars to your peace,
May my longing cling to you,
Full of hope and faith!
O kind and beautiful stars,
Could you ever lead astray?
