Hölderlin

As people are, so life is splendid,
People are often empowered by nature.
The splendid country-side is not hidden from people,
Delightfully the evening comes and then the morning.
The open fields are as in the days of harvest,
Spiritual, as the old saying goes hereabouts,
And new life from humanity comes again
As the year subsides with stillness.
