Consolatio: Hölty: Four blear moons have fled away since

What is this website for?

When you are very sad, when someone you love very much has died, sometimes it helps to know that others have felt the same way before you.

Four moons have fled away
Four gloomy moons have fled away
since I have been grieving
the yellow-brown wormwood is already green
on my love's grave.

Vier Mond sind entflohn
Vier trübe Monde sind entflohn
Seit ich getrauert hab
der falbe Wermut grünt schon
auf meiner Freundin Grab
