Zueignung (Dedication)

Ihr naht euch wieder, schwankende Gestalten, die früh sich einst dem trüben Blick gezeigt. Versuch’ ich wohl, euch diesmal festzuhalten? Fühl’ ich mein Herz noch jenem Wahn geneigt?

Ihr drängt euch zu! nun gut, so mögt ihr walten, wie ihr aus Dunst und Nebel um mich steigt; mein Busen fühlt sich jugendlich erschüttert vom Zauberhauch, der euren Zug umwittert.

Dedication

Again ye come, ye wavering forms and shades, that once in youth were visible to my dim sight. Shall I attempt this once to hold you fast? Doth still my heart incline to that old fond illusion?

Ye press upon me! Well then, govern and hold sway, as out of mist and cloud around me ye ascend; my breast feels shaken with youthful tremor by the magic breath that floats around your train.
