Friedrich Schiller, 1795 Poem
“Schön und Erhaben” (Beautiful and Sublime)
[German here]
1 There are two kinds of genius guiding you through life;
2 Happy are you, when they, united, go helping by your side!
3 With quickened play the One makes the journey shorter,
4 On his arm, fate and duty become lighter.
5 With joking and conversing, he leads you up to the precipice,
6 Where the mortal stands, shuddering at the sea of eternity.
7 Here the Other one, resolute and grave and silent, welcomes you,
8 And with an enormous arm carries you over the deep.
9 Never dedicate yourself to one alone. Do not trust the first
10 With your dignity, nor the second with your fortune.
— By Schiller, translated by Robert R. Clewis, July 2022
