On the Lahn, amidst Marburg's quiet splendor, the water glides through the green roof. Waves carry shadows of old bridges, beneath whispering beech trees, where veils of air drift. In flocks of birds flying across the sky, towers and stones are reflected in the shallow greenery. The Marbach silhouette on the horizon, a silent friend, departing every hour. Bare cliffs line the narrow valley, where boats drift, tired but numbered. The river sings softly from year to year, of paths that connect, visible and clear. Meadows sway, horses' wheels nod, a scent of hay, of rain, of pebbles in the river. The Lahn tells stories of bygone days, of science, of moments – a gentle ending. So it flows on, calmly and persistently, through Marburg's heart, a poem so honest. When evening mist gently kisses the banks, the river remains a friend who never forgets.
