Die Wüste wächst : weh dem, der Wüsten birgt !
Stein knirscht an Stein, die Wüste schlingt und würgt.
Der ungeheure Tod blickt glühend braun
und kaut, sein Leben ist sein Kaun...
Vergiss nicht, Mensch, den Wollust ausgeloht :
du bist der Stein, die Wüste, bist der Tod...

Désert
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch)
Le désert grandit : malheur à celui qui contient les déserts !
La pierre crisse contre la pierre, le désert entoure et étrangle.
La mort effrayante regarde brûlante et brune
et mâche, sa vie est sa mastication...
N'oublie pas, homme, consumé par la volupté :
tu es la pierre, le désert, tu es la mort...
