Peace for the Soul

A common space for harmonic peacemakers

 

What it is

 

It is nonsense

says reason

It is what it is

says love

 

It is misfortune

says calculation

It is nothing but pain

says fear

It is hopeless

says insight

It is what it is

says love

 

It is ridiculous

says pride

It is careless

says caution

It is impossible

says experience

It is what it is

says love

there is no better translation, this is the best.

 

Was es ist

 

Es ist Unsinn
sagt die Vernunft
Es ist was es ist
sagt die Liebe

 

Es ist Unglück
sagt die Berechnung
Es ist nichts als Schmerz
sagt die Angst
Es ist aussichtslos
sagt die Einsicht
Es ist was es ist
sagt die Liebe

 

Es ist lächerlich
sagt der Stolz
Es ist leichtsinnig
sagt die Vorsicht
Es ist unmöglich
sagt die Erfahrung
Es ist was es ist
sagt die Liebe

 

~ Erich Fried
