Branches rap on the window pane
The shadows dance on the ceiling
Thank God that the moon refracts
only on the wings of moths
Thank God that the wind is that
which sings through the night
Branches rap on the window pane
The shadows dance on the ceiling
It seems to me as if the trees
sharpen the teeth of sleepy ravens.
It seems to me as if the spilled wine
is again reminiscent of old battles
Boots walk on the window pane
Dreams stick to the ceiling
Now the moon strongly smiles
Teeth grew at the window
The wind whistles our songs,
when it blows through our heads.
