Dem dunkeln Schoss der heiligen Erde
vertraut der Sämann seine Saat und hofft,
dass sie entkeimen werde zum Segen
nach des Himmels Rat.
Noch köstlicheren Samen bergen wir trauernd
in der Erde Schoss und hoffen,
dass er aus den Särgen erblühen soll
zu schönerm Los.

English.png English translation

To holy earth's e'er-dark'ning bosom
The sower doth entrust his seed
And hopes, indeed, that it will blossom
To bless, as Heaven’s bath decreed.
Still costlier the seed we've buried
With sorrow in the womb of earth
And hope, that from the coffin carried
'Twill bloom to fairer fortune forth.

Poetic Translation by Marianna Wertz
