'Now slumbers my soul '



The storm felled trees,
O, my soul was a forest.

Did you hear my cries?
Because your eyes stayed fearfully open.
Stars scattered night
In my forgotten blood.

Now slumbers my soul
Hesitating on tiptoe.

O, my soul was a forest;
Palms shadowed,
On the boughs hung love.
Comfort my soul in its sleep..

Else Lasker-Schüler
