Poems by Georg Trakl
De Profundis
... There is a hissing wind which haunts deserted huts--- ...
Klage
... Dreamless sleep - the dusky Eagles ...
What My Father Left Behind
... tied to a parachute, thin as a bread bag, it rises, it arcs ...
Lament
... Under stars, The silent face of the night ...
Billet-Doux
... For S. S. She reads by the light of a guttering candle ...
Psalm
... And later touches her shadow along cold walls, surrounded by fairy tales and holy legends ...
Grodek
... The spirit's hot flame is fed now by a tremendous pain: ...
Kaspar Hauser's Song
... He truly loved the purple sun, descending from the hills, ...
Whispered Into Afternoon
... Rest and wine in sunsets gleam, ...
Delirium
... The evenings wind weeps in the scent of carnations ...
Rondeau
... Gone and passed as is the gold of day ...
Helian
... At suppertime a stranger loses himself in Novembers black destitution ...
In The East
... Wild wolves have burst through the gate ...
To The Silenced
... Lights with magnetic scourge drive off the stony night ...
Winter Evening
... Grief has worn the threshold into stone ...
