IV. Sonett O dieses ist das Tier, das es nicht giebt. Sie wußtens nicht und habens jeden Falls - sein Wandeln, seine Haltung, seinen Hals, bis in des stillen Blickes Licht - geliebt. Zwar war es nicht. Doch weil sie's liebten, ward ein reines Tier. Sie ließen immer Raum. Und in dem Raume, klar und ausgespart, erhob es leicht sein Haupt und brauchte kaum zu sein. Sie nährten es mit keinem Korn, nur immer mit der Möglichkeit, es sei. Und die gab solche Stärke an das Tier, daß es aus sich ein Stirnhorn trieb. Ein Horn. Zu einer Jungfrau kam es weiß herbei - und war im Silber-Spiegel und in ihr. Translation: Ah, here it is, the creature without life They could not know but did just to be sure Admire, love, its features so alive Into the depth of stillness to endure Though it was not an animal to love Yet had become one in that inner room Where it stood out to raise its head above Itself, she nourished it not with a single corn But always with the thought that it could be And thus a strength formidable defied all doom To grow from deep within its forehead’s own A growth into its world, a unicorn. Within the silver mirror it was plain to see White, inside the maiden it had grown. This, of course is Rilke, The Unicorn. My version in English. HHN
