To the moon
You quietly used your light mist,
to fill the jungles and valleys again,
the same In this way
Release my whole soul,
Your soft eyes
fill my garden,
like A friend's eyes
look gently at my destiny.
In this lonely moment
My heart is wandering in joy and pain,
She can hear every sound,
They come from times of joy and frustration.
Flow, flow, dear river!
I will no longer be happy,
Those smiles, kisses and trust
have passed away like you.
I had it at least once,
That precious thing!
Oh, how can I forget this
Even if she will bring pain!
The river flows along the valley,
neither stops nor rushes,
you flow, whispering
My singing,
Whether it is on a winter night
the day when you suddenly rise,
or on the occasion of spring
The time when you soak in the buds.
Oh, what a joy it is, if
I can stay away from the world without hatred,
If I can have a close friend,
Share with him
things that are unknown to humans and unimaginable
and follow him along the labyrinth of the soul
Take a walk at night.
To the West Wind
Your wet wings,
The West Wind, how jealous I am:
You can carry it to him Message,
Tell him that separation pains me.
The vibration of your wings awakens
the silent longing in my breast,
flowers, eyes, woods and hills
all Let you be filled with tears.
However, your gentle blowing
cooled my painful eyes,
Alas, I will surely die of sorrow,
< p>There is no hope of seeing him again.Fly to my lover quickly,
Gently comfort his heart;
Don’t mention how painful I am,
Save him from worry and sadness.
Tell him, but be humble and gentle,
His love is my life;
Only by his side can I
Enjoy life and love happily.
To the East Wind
Why am I so excited?
The east wind brings me good news?
It flaps its wings gently,
soothing my physical and mental pain.
It plays with the dust affectionately,
Sending it to the floating clouds in the sky;
It lets it sit under the shade of safe grapes,
A swarm of dancing insects.
It softens the passion of the scorching sun,
cools my feverish cheeks,
it rushes across the mountains and fields,
it will also be crystal clear grape kisses.
Its soft whispers bring me
Friendly greetings from friends,
Not waiting for the mountains to darken,
I I will sit quietly at his knees.
Therefore, you can leave me!
Go and serve the happy and the sad.
I will find my darling soon,
where the city walls are burning in the sunset.
Ah, the good news that I long for with all my heart,
fresh life, the breath of love,
can only be known from his mouth,
It can only come from his breath.
"To the East Wind":
This poem was originally written by a friend of Goethe. It was later compiled and rewritten by Goethe and included in Goethe's collection of poems.
Ginkgo
A tree with such leaves was transplanted from the east
in my garden,
The secret of the leaves is for people to taste,< /p>
It provides enlightenment to those in the know.
Is it a living object
Divided into two parts within itself?
It is two things put together,
Do people think of it as one?
Answering questions like this,
I get the true meaning;
Don’t you think that in my songs,
I am Me and you too?
Mignon
Do you know where the lemon blossoms bloom?
The dark green leaves reflect the orange and golden colors,
The pleasant breeze rises from the blue sky,
There is also the tranquility of Changchun and the moon. Zhu Xuanang——
Do you know?
That way! That's where it is,
My beloved, I want to go with you!
Do you know: the towering building with columns,
the splendor of the palace, the brilliance of the house,
and the standing white stone statue staring at it Looking at me:
"Poor man, how much torture have you suffered?"
Do you know?
That way! That's where,
My benefactor who protects me, I want to live with you!
Do you know that high mountain and its cloud path?
The mule is groping its way in the thick fog,
The dark dragon is lurking in the depths of the ravine,
The cliffs are turning with ice and rocks, and the waterfalls are The flow is turbulent over there——
Do you know?
That way! That's where it is,
Let's set off, Father, let's go together!

The splashing ripples gradually sank
The king’s eyes also gradually sank
From then on No more drinking

Ghost King
Who is running in the dark night and wind at this late hour?
It was the father who took his child;
He held the child in his arms,
He held him close and held him Heating.
My son, why do you hide your face?
Dad, didn’t you see the Ghost King?
The ghost king is wearing a crown and dragging a long skirt.
My son, that is a cloud of smoke.
"Come, follow me, lovely child!
I want to play interesting games with you;
There are many colorful flowers blooming on the seaside .
My mother has many clothes with gold threads. ”
Dad, dad, didn’t you hear,
The ghost king made a promise to me softly?
Don't make any noise, child, you have to be quiet;
That is the sound of the wind blowing the dead leaves.
"Smart child, do you want to come with me?
My daughters will serve you very attentively;
My daughters dance every night Dancing in the garden,
Dancing, singing, and rocking you to sleep."
Dad, dad, didn't you see that side?
The Ghost King. Daughters standing in a dark place?
My son, my son, I can see clearly;
Those are some gray old poplar trees.
“I love you, your beauty pleases me.
If you refuse, I will use force. ”
Dad, dad, he is here to catch me now!
The ghost king’s hold made me extremely painful!
My father was frightened and galloped quickly,
p>
He held the moaning child tightly in his arms, and
finally arrived at his home.
The child in his arms had died.
< p>"The Ghost King":In April 1781, Goethe heard a rumor at the Fir Tree Hotel in Thuringia: A few nights ago, a farmer rode to Jena with a sick child in his arms. To see a doctor, the farmer wanted to ask a famous physician for diagnosis and treatment, but the famous doctor was unable to do anything about the disease. The father had no choice but to rush home with the child in his arms, and the child died in his arms before he got home. .
When Goethe heard this rumor and wrote the narrative poem "The Ghost King", he was obviously also influenced by the poem "The Devil's Daughter" written by the German poet J.C. Herder based on the Danish folk song. "Describes Mr. Oluf riding a horse at night to invite his guests to attend his wedding. On the way, he met the devil's daughter who used sweet words to seduce him, but he refused all kinds of temptations, so he received a fatal blow from her. The next day After the wedding, Goethe died suddenly in his bridal chamber. From the content of the poem to the choice of words and sentences, it can be seen that this poem mainly expresses the influence of Herder. The mysterious power of nature was later composed by Schubert and became a world-famous song
