It is as if the sound of a timid harp

Spreads with bird-like wings

Along the stone cliffs and over the valley.

And now, as if breathed by the fragrance and dew,

Out of fog blossoms a wreath of meadows;

Behind them blooms a crystal glacier blue,

And a dream-laden delicate purple grey

Plays all around the giant mountains.

Young Days

(From the German of Fritz Schnack)
