Tears flow from my eyes aches ebb from my heart unrest is all around me humanity astounds me.
I do not know what haunts me what saddened my mind all day an age-old tale confounds me a spell I cannot allay.
Bleakness fills my soul helpless, out of control Oh Lord, take me away I wish not one more day.
Sleep is good death is better but best of all is never to have been born.

Heine lived at a time of major social and political changes: the French Revolution (1789-99) and the Napoleonic wars influenced deeply his poetry and thinking. He died in Paris, where he had lived from 1831 as one of the central figures of the literary scene.
