Aedeus Variations [English translation]

After a short while

you have mixed amongst my laughter

so much of your bitter poison,

[that it] overflows from my heart.

Be gone!

into your nights

go, alone to your torments.

Now they lie dormant,

they are silent; my sighs,

leave me, motionless

spread out on the tide,

o sleep,

like ashes, [my] memory

is scattered.

Ha-a-ha

ha-a-ha

ha-a-ha

ha-a-a-ha

I fall when there's no one

who will notice me,

when I steal your affections,1

alas, it doesn't matter what use it was.

Now they lie dormant,

they are silent; my sighs,

leave me, motionless

spread out on the tide,

o sleep,

like ashes, [my] memory

is scattered.

Now they lie dormant,

they are silent; my sighs,

leave me, motionless

spread out on the tide,

o sleep...

1. lit. 'when I break into your heart' / as in "I've made my way into your heart"
