I found this really nice site during my browsing. They have a large collection of audio poetry and poems collected from different languages.
This is a German poem (translation) that i have never heard of before. (Not that that's very surprising. I haven't heard any german poetry before! :-) )
Anyway, here it is:
All Who Seek You
Rainer Maria Rilke
All who seek you
test you.
And those who find you
bind you to image and gesture.
I would rather sense you
as the earth sense you.
In my ripening
ripens
what you are.
I need from you no tricks
to prove you exist.
Time, I know,
is other than you.
No miracles, please.
Just let your laws
become clearer
from generation to generation.
