| - | |
| Over the black crevice | B |
| at noon the ravens rush with rusty cries | C |
| Their shadows touch the deer s back | D |
| and at times they loom in gnarled rest | E |
| - | |
| O how they derange the brown stillness | B |
| in the one acre itself entranced | F |
| like a woman married to grave premonitions | A |
| and at times you can hear them bicker | G |
| - | |
| about a corpse they sniffed out somewhere | H |
| and sharply they bend their flight towards north | I |
| and dwindle away like a funeral | J |
| march in the air shivering with bliss | K |

| D ie Raben | L |
| - | |
| ber den schwarzen Winkel hasten | L |
| Am Mittag die Raben mit hartem Schrei | H |
| Ihr Schatten streift an der Hirschkuh vorbei | M |
| Und manchmal sieht man sie m rrisch rasten | L |
| - | |
| O wie sie die braune Stille st ren | L |
| In der ein Acker sich verz ckt | F |
| Wie ein Weib das schwere Ahnung ber ckt | F |
| Und manchmal kann man sie keifen h ren | L |
| - | |
| Um ein Aas das sie irgendwo wittern | L |
| Und pl tzlich richten nach Nord sie den Flug | D |
| Und schwinden wie ein Leichenzug | D |
| In L ften die von Wollust zittern | L |
