他們把一切和盤托出：
這個叫做狗，那個叫做房屋，
這個是開始，那個是結束。
我怕人的聰明，人的譏誚，
過去和未來，他們似乎全部知道；
沒有哪座山再令他們感覺好奇，
他們的花園和山莊緊挨上帝。
我不斷警告和抗拒：請離我遠一些。
我愛聽萬物的聲音；可一經你們觸碰，它們就了無聲息。
你們毀了我一切的一切。
I am so afraid of people's words
They describe so distinctly everything：
And this they call dog and that they call house，
Here the start and there the end.
I worry about their mockery with words，
They know everything，what will be，what was；
No mountain is still miraculous
And their house and yard lead right up to god.
I want to warn and object：
Let the things be！
I enjoy listening to the sound they are ******
But you always touch
And they hush and stand still.
That's how you kill.
By Rainer Maria Rilke
