Lyrical contemplation XIX

A light
Antje van der Maas

A light that shines before us

Power sees us and makes our eyes shine

Captivates young and old alike

Has given us care for so many years now

A light that carries the message far and wide

That all the children of men may hear 

And in amazement they turn in a frenzy

And want to conjure up the splendor and glory of the world

A light that comforts in difficult hours

It warms when the winds blow harshly outside

Who ever found this light of eternity

He will see what is right day and night and always

  1. Ich denke die Zeit der kontroversen Diskusion ist ein muss für eine demokratische Gesellschaft. Leider hat sich diesbezüglich in den letzten Jahren einiges verändert. Aus diesem Grund bin ich nicht mehr bereit den Schwachsinn der Links Grünen Politik an zu hören. Ich akzeptiere kein: „ja aber“ mehr. Wie denkt Ihr darüber?

Welcome to this platform for the cultivated exchange of arguments.

We have forgotten how to endure contradiction. It is okay to disagree here. I would ask you to remain respectful and polite. Insults and hate comments will be removed in future, as will calls to vote for political parties. I reserve the right to delete insulting or derogatory comments. This public forum and its inherent opportunity to exchange arguments and opinions is an attempt to uphold freedom of expression - including freedom of dissent. I would like to see the old-fashioned virtue of respect cultivated here.

"Controversy is not an annoying evil, but a necessary prerequisite for the success of democracy." Federal President Dr. h.c. Joachim Gauck (ret.), only 5 years ago in his speech on the Day of the Basic Law.
