TEXTS & TRANSLATIONS
Nach neuen Meeren
Dorthin - will ich; und ich traue
Mir fortan und meinem Griff.
Offen liegt das Meer, ins Blaue
Treibt mein Genueser Schiff.
Alles glänzt mir neu und neuer,
Mittag schläft auf Raum und Zeit -:
Nur dein Auge - ungeheuer
Blickt michs an, Unendlichkeit!
Toward New Seas
Thither - I wish to go, and I trust in
Myself henceforth, and in my grasp.
The sea lies open [before me], into the blue
Drifts my Genoese ship.
Everything shines new and newer for me
Noonday is sleeping in time and space - :
Only your eye - tremendously
Gazes upon me, Endlessness!
Friedrich Nietzsche, Die fröhliche Wissenschaft, 1887
