Acht Gedichte aus "Letzte Blätter" Eight Poems from "Last Leaves" Richard Strauss Text by Hermann von Gilm
Die Verschwiegenen The discreet ones I am happy, it is announced out loud here to the whole world, what was confided to many in private, what you have done to me;
I've said it to the whole army of the flowers, to the violet, I said it softly, to the rose, loudly. even louder to the great-eyed camomile.
And so, I have no more distress, I remain only bright and cheerful, for those who knew it are all dead, and will say nothing further.

Acht Gedichte aus "Letzte Blätter"
Eight Poems from "Last Leaves"
Richard Strauss
Text by Hermann von Gilm
Die Verschwiegenen
The discreet ones
I am happy, it is announced out loud here
to the whole world,
what was confided to many in private,
what you have done to me;
I've said it to the whole army of the flowers,
to the violet, I said it softly,
to the rose, loudly.
even louder to the great-eyed camomile.
And so, I have no more distress,
I remain only bright and cheerful,
for those who knew it are all dead,
and will say nothing further.
