'Tis endedA
Welcome 'tis endedA
Oh thou sinner majesticB
All thy terrible part is now playedC
-
Noble abased oneD
Thou of thy race beginner and enderE
Wondrous son of her fearfulest humorE
Mother Nature's blunder sublimeF
-
Through cloud covered night a radiant gleamG
Hark how behind him the portals are closingH
Night's gloomy jaws veil him darkly in shadeC
Nations are tremblingH
At his destructive splendor afraidC
Thou art welcome 'Tis endedA
Oh thou sinner majesticB
All thy terrible part is now playedC
-
Crumble decayI
In the cradle of wide open heavenD
Terrible sight to each sinner that breathesJ
When the hot thirst for gloryK
Raises its barriers over against the dread throneL
See to eternity shame has consigned theeK
To the bright stars of fameM
Thou hast clambered aloft on the shoulders of shameM
Yet time will come when shame will crumble beneath theeK
When admiration at length will be thineN
-
With moist eye by thy sepulchre dreadedO
Man has passed onwardP
Rejoice in the tears that man sheddethK
Oh thou soul of the judgedQ
With moist eye by the sepulchre dreadedO
Lately a maiden passed onwardP
Hearing the fearful announcementR
Told of thy deeds by the herald of marbleS
And the maiden rejoice thee rejoice theeK
Sought not to dry up her tearsT
Far away I stood as the pearls were fallingH
And I shouted AmaliaU
-
Oh ye youths Oh ye youthsV
With the dangerous lightning of geniusW
Learn to play with more cautionD
Wildly his bit champs the charger of PhoebusW
Though 'neath the reins of his masterE
More gently he rocks earth and heavenD
Reined by a child's hand he kindlesW
Earth and heaven in blazing destructionD
Obstinate Phaeton perishedX
Buried beneath the sad wreckY
-
Child of the heavenly geniusW
Glowing bosom all panting for actionD
Art thou charmed by the tale of my robberE
Glowing like time was his bosom and panting for actionD
He like thee was the child of the heavenly geniusW
But thou smilest and goestX
Thy gaze flies through the realms of the world's long storyK
Moor the robber it finds not thereZ
Stay thou youth and smile notX
Still survive all his sins and his shameM
Robber Moor liveth in all but nameM

Friedrich Schiller
