Abendrot [English translation]

Silent I lie in wilted leaves

That the forest has laid for me

I hardly feel the beat of my heart,

and how my life is gently passing away1

Mind and limbs are without power

Dreary emptiness devours me

Until the sweet heaviness of the dream

Brings rest to my soul

Was it blood from my wounds

That2 the pain of living has pierced deep into me

Or just the redness of the sun

That3 flowed over evening skies

I see the first shadows staggering

Until also that redness dies away

Darkness strokes4 around the temples5

And courts my last breath

I see the first shadows staggering

Until also that redness dies away

Darkness strokes about the temples

And courts my last breath

1. or "by"2. the wounds3. the redness4. or "roams"5. the ones on the head
