Amadeus

Amadeus

What noble legacy remains your gift for us to hear,
      O how profoundly it transforms cold sadness
       into joy
When sweet and wondrous sounds begin to touch
      the ear;
Changing woman into a smiling girl,man
      to boy.
Quickly enchanting notes ascend on fiery wings,
      Banishing dark spirits and happily the
      dormant strings
Of heart sounds commence anew their leaping
      ageless play
      Evoking dear memories of a long thought
      exiled day,
Before love so good but could not last sought to
      depart
      Forever wounding in ist brush this mortal's
      heart.

Walter Stuck
