Traumesnähe(aus Die neue Scheherezade: 1913)Nur unser Traum ist nah Und fern ist uns die unserem Auge Nahgerückte Welt. Was nicht Gedanken, Was Blut selbst lautlos-rauschend Tiefdringlich uns erzählt Ist da— Nur was wie schmerzgesenkte Lider, Der Dinge deutliche Aufdringlichkeit Uns ferne hält— Ist unsre wahre Welt… Else Asenjeff (1867-1941) österreichische Schriftstellerin |
Dream Vicinity(from The New Scheherezade: 1913)Only our dream is close And far away is our eye Close-up world. What not thoughts, What blood itself silently-rushing Deeply telling us Is there— Just what pain-relieved eyelids, Things are clearly pushy Far from us— Is our true world ... Else Asenjeff (1867-1941) Austrian writer Literal translation: Edith LaGraziana 2017 |
