Interpret the poem “Travel” by Ludwig Uhland with particular attention to the lyrical ego’s attitude to travel. Ludwig Uhland (1787-1862): Travels (1834) I should travel, friends! travel, Should I air my chest? From the narrow tracks of the day's work Are you luring me to Wanderlust? 5 And yet I have deeper just I sunk into my homeland, I feel devoted to her, Freer, richer than you think. I never exhaust these ways, 10 I will never fathom this valley, And the old footbridges Stirring me new every time; Often when I tell myself How lonely the path is, 15 stripes here in daylight Expensive shadows pass me by. When the sun sets from behind1, My heart still knows no peace, Hurry with her from the mountain peaks 20 Fabulous Islands too; Then the stars emerge, If it pushes me hard, And ever deeper into the distance I pull the bright train of the gods. 25 old and new youth dreams, future and past, Shoreless heavens Are here ready for me every hour. That's why, friends! I want to travel; 30 Show me the road and destination! Silent circles at home The heart raves too much.
