Bitter cold world

Lines by Josef Weinheber - the man honoured by Auden and despite having been a member of the Nazi party famously replied to Goebbels' query about what the Germans could do to enrich Viennese culture replied "in Ruah lossen" (leave us alone) - these are from his short poem 'Forest Paths':

Ach, wie ist die Welt so bitterkalt !
Immer weht derselbe böse Wind

Oh, how the world is so bitter-cold!
Ever blows the same evil wind
