custom made wire ring, copper wire ring, ring Parzifal









Wolfram von Eschenbach
Parzifal-Prolog
1
Ist zwîvel herzen nâchgebûr,
daz muoz der sêle werden sûr.
gesmæhet unde gezieret
ist, swâ sich parrieret
5
unverzaget mannes muot,
als agelstern varwe tuot.
der mac dennoch wesen geil:
wand an im sint beidiu teil,
des himels und der helle.

der unstæte geselle
hât die swarzen varwe gar,
und wirt och nâch der vinster var:
sô habet sich an die blanken
der mit stæten gedanken.

Wo Zweifel nah dem Herzen wohnt,
Das wird der Seele schlimm gelohnt.
Geziert ist und zugleich entstellt,
Wo Verzagtheit sich gesellt
Zu des kühnen Mannes Preis
Wie bei der Elster Schwarz zu Weiß.
Der mag gleichwohl fröhlich sein,
Denn noch harren beide sein
Himmel oder Höllenschlund.
Wer Untreu hegt in Herzensgrund
Wird schwarzer Farbe ganz und gar
Und trägt sich nach der finstern Schar;
Doch fest hält an der blanken
Der mit stätigen Gedanken.

BOOK I
GAMURET

If unfaith in the heart find dwelling, then the soul it shall reap but woe ;
And shaming alike and honour are his who such doubt shall show,
For it standeth in evil contrast with a true man's dauntless
might,
As one seeth the magpie's plumage, which at one while is black and white.
And yet he may win to blessing ; since I wot well that in his heart,

Hell's darkness, and light of Heaven, alike have their lot and part
But he who is false and unsteadfast, he is black as the darkest night,
And the soul that hath never wavered stainless its hue and white !
