Munch-Petersen, Gustaf the song of the lonesome warrior

the song of the lonesome warrior

- man
is the one action -
- man
is the only real -
- man
is the world to come -

the earth
must be loved by men -
the wretched parts
of the futile will to be men
is stabbing
the patient heart of the earth,
crying :
"behold, we
have subdued this lazy servant -,
soon she will love us -"

soon she will die -
the last of her voice
are the remnants of man -
the earth
must be loved by men -,
not by waiters,
and buyers
and sellers -
no part can love -,
- only man can love -
- you mourning remnants,
- awake -!

the reign of the seekers
is finished -
- man
is the only real -
- man
is the world to come -
