3 Still! - Von grossen Dingen - ich sehe Grosses! - soll man schweigen oder gross reden: rede gross, meine entzückte Weisheit! Ich sehe hinauf - dort rollen Lichtmeere: - oh Nacht, oh Schweigen, oh todtenstiller Lärm!… Ich sehe ein Zeichen - , aus fernsten Fernen sinkt langsam funkelnd ein Sternbild gegen mich…

Silence! Of great things, I see great things! One should be silent or speak greatly: speak greatly, my rapturous wisdom!
I look upward, there seas of light are rolling. Oh night, oh silence, oh deathly silent noise!...
I see a sign: from the farthest distances, sparkling slowly, a constellation descends toward me...

Silence !
Des grandes choses,
je vois de grandes choses !
il faut se taire ou parler grandement :
parle grandement, ma sagesse ravie !
Je regarde vers le haut,
là roulent des mers de lumière :
oh nuit, oh silence, oh vacarme silencieux comme la mort !...
Je vois un signe,
des plus lointains lointains,
une constellation descend lentement vers moi,
étincelante...
