1. Mondestrunken (Drunk with Moonlight)
Den Wein, den man mit Augen trinkt,
Gießt Nachts der Mond in Wogen nieder,
Und eine Springflut überschwemmt
Den stillen Horizont.
Gelüste schauerlich und süss,
Durchschwimmen ohne Zahl die Fluten!
Den Wein, den man mit Augen trinkt,
Giesst Nachts der Mond in Wogen nieder.
Der Dichter, den die Andacht treibt,
Berauscht sich an dem heilgen Tranke,
Gen Himmel wendet er verzückt
Das Haupt und taumelnd saugt und schlürft er
Den Wein, den man mit Augen trinkt.
The wine that one drinks with the eyes
The moon spills nights into the waves,
And a Springflood overflows
The silent horizon.
Desires, visible and sweet
Countless swim across the flood.
The wine that one drinks with the eyes
The moon spills nights into the waves.
The poet, who practices devotion,
Enrapts himself on the holy drink,
He turns against the sky ecstatic
Headlong reeling sucks and slurps
The wine that one drinks with the eyes.
