(1999)
Part of a series or song cycle:
Ende der Handschrift, 11 späte Gedichte von Heiner Müller
Glückloser Engel 2
Zwischen Stadt und Stadt
Nach der Mauer der Abgrund
Wind an den Schultern die fremde
Hand am einsamen Fleisch
Der Engel ich höre ihn noch
Aber er hat kein Gesicht mehr als
Deines das ich nicht kenne
Hapless Angel 2
Between city and city
After the wall the abyss
Wind at the shoulders the unfamiliar
Hand on the lonely flesh
The angel I still hear him
But he hasn’t a face any more than
Yours that I do not know
