My heart is crushed It's lying there and growing cold Summer's sunset falls Sunlight flees away and dews of night arise Rainy autumn moves my heart Flowers welking welk my joy Clouds come rolling over they depress me, overrun me They overshadow my heart Autumn comes apace, a last warm glance sighing to me Now grey vails between the earth and sea Birdless branches in the wind Leaves they found their death in coldness Naked trees in the frost of night yearning for the sun again and again Waters laying still in transparent fog Lakes of blue covered with ice to sleep their winter-sleep
