    Die Welt wie sie ein Käfer sieht. :)

    In noon's heat, in a dale of Dagestan
    With lead inside my breast, stirless I lay;
    The deep wound still smoked on; my blood
    Kept trickling drop by drop away.

    On the dale's sand alone I lay. The cliffs
    Crowded around in ledges steep,
    And the sun scorched their tawny tops
    And scorched me -- but I slept death's sleep.

    And in a dream I saw an evening feast
    That in my native land with bright lights shone;
    Among young women crowned with flowers,
    A merry talk concerning me went on.

    But in the merry talk not joining,
    One of them sat there lost in thought,
    And in a melancholy dream
    Her young soul was immersed -- God knows by what.

    And of a dale in Dagestan she dreamt;
    In that dale lay the corpse of one she knew;
    Within his breast a smoking wound showed black,
    And blood ran in a stream that colder grew.
