Poem Sonnet to Orpheus II:4 Rainer Maria Rilke

English translation by Stephen Mitchell

O dieses ist das Tier, das es nicht gibt.

Sie wußtens nicht und habens jeden Falls - sein Wandeln, seine Haltung, seinen Hals, bis in des stillen Blickes Licht-geliebt.

Oh this beast is the one that never was.

They didn’t know that; unconcerned, they had loved its grace, its walk, and how it stood looking at them calmly, with clear eyes.

Zwar war es nicht. Doch weil sie’s liebten, ward ein reines Tier. Sie ließen immer Raum.

Und in der Raume, klar und ausgepart, erhob es leicht sein haupt und brauchte kaum

It hadn’t BEEN. But from their love, a pure beast arose.” They always left it room.

And in that heart-space, radiant and bare, it raised its head and hardly needed to

zu sein. Sie nährten es mit keinem Korn, nur immer mit der Möglichkeit, es sei.

Und die gab solche Stärke an das Tier,

exist.” They fed it, not with any grain, but always just with the thought that it might be.

And this assurance gave the beast so much power,

daß es aus sich ein Stirnhorn tried. Ein Horn.

Zu einer Jungfrau kam es weiß herbei – und war im Silber-Spiegel und in ihr.

it grew a horn upon its brow. One horn.

Afterward it approached a virgin, whitely – and was, inside the mirror and in her.
