The Hunter's Evening Song
The Wanderer's Night Song (I)
The Repentant Shepherdess
Winter Journey in the Harz Mountains
Song of the Spirits above the Waters
The Wanderer's Equanimity
Spirit Hovering over the Earth
From Faust, Part Two, Final Scene
The Wanderer's Night Song (II)
Poems are like stained-glass windows
Among the princes of Germany
"Aren't we right to deceive the people?
When I heard them yelling
Whoever serves the public
Time spent looking for cures
So, what do you consider sin?
You cannot cure your oddities
Always strive for the whole
You ask if I mean all I say
"Whom should we believe?"
Do you know how to find the joy of life?
Yes, you're on the right track
You want the comfort of certainty!
Let no one resemble another
Every life is worth living
