Georg Trakl: An die Melancholie (Gedicht)

  This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is TRAKL112-1.jpeg

An die Melancholie

Immer wieder kehrst du Melancholie,
O Sanftmut der einsamen Seele.
Zu Ende glüht ein goldner Tag.

Demutsvoll beugt sich dem Schmerz der Geduldige,
Tönend von Wohllaut und weichem Wahnsinn.
Siehe! es dämmert schon.

Wiederkehrt die Nacht und klagt ein Sterbliches
Und es leidet ein anderes mit.

Schaudernd unter herbstlichen Sternen
Neigt sich jährlich tiefer das Haupt.

Georg Trakl
(1887 – 1914)
An die Melancholie, 1913
