A supple dance of a dancer torn into pieces

"The girl goes dancing there
On the leaf-sown, new-mown, smooth
Grass plot of the garden;
Escaped from bitter youth,
Escaped out of her crowd,
Or out of her black cloud.
Ah, dancer, ah, sweet dancer!
If strange men come from the house
To lead her away, do not say
That she is happy being crazy;
Lead them gently astray;
Let her finish her dance,
Let her finish her dance.
Ah, dancer, ah, sweet dancer!"
(W.B. Yeats in Sweet dancer)

“Im Wald, im Wald ist der Liebe Reich,
Da singen die Vöglein auf jedem Zweig,
Da wiegt die Blumen ein kosender Wind,
Und ich wieg und küsse dich, herz’ges Kind,
Im Wald, im kühlen Walde.”
(Theodor Körner in Waldfahrt)

“O Herr, gib jedem seinen eignen Tod.
Das Sterben, das aus jenem Leben geht,
darin er Liebe hatte, Sinn und Not.”
