Letter to the Inmortal Beloved

This is the only love letter of Beethoven that have left us, still if there were anothers. It was found between his own papers several years after his dead. The year is not confirmed. Vain were te efforts to stablish the destinatary. What here can be found it's not what Beethoven talked so such woman, instead how he talked to the women. The letter, was wrote in two days of june, and is formed by three paragraphs, it's long:

"My angel, my whole, my I.. Why that deep heavyness when it's the necessity who talks? Can our love consist in another thing than sacrifices, in exigencies of everything and nothing? Can you change the fact that you won't be entirely mine and I entirely yours? Oh God! Contemplate the beatiful nature and tranquilize thour spirits in presence of the unavoidable. The love wans everything and with hole right: me for you and you for me. Just that you forget easily that I have to live for me and for you. If we be completely united even you and me would not feel the painful. My travel was horrible..."

"Be happy, be my most faithful and unique treasure, my everything like me for you. The other that have to happen and must happen with us, the gods have to send it..."

"Monday afternoon... You suffer. Oh! where I am, you are too with me. With me and with you I'll do you can live together me. What life!!! So!!! Without you... prosecuted by the kindness of some persons, that I don't want to receive because I don't earned. The humbly from men to the men, hurts me. And when I consider myself in connection with the Universe, What am I and what is him who name the biggest? And however... there appears again the divine of the man. I cry when think that probably you won't receive my first new before the saturday. As much as you love me, much more I love you!... Good Night! In my bath quality I must go to sleep. Oh, God! So near! So far! Is it not our love a truly dwell of the heaven? And as solid as the walls of heaven!."

"Good Morning, July 7. Still in bed my thougts are pushing about you, my inmortal beloved; so soon jubilouse as sad, waiting to see if the destiny want to hear us, to live alone is only possible for me, or entirely with you, or completely without you. Yes, I've resolved to wander to the far until I can fly to your arms and feel me in ahome that be ours, canning send my soul to the kingdom of spirits involved in you. Yes, it's necessaire. You'll be glad with me, as much knowing my loyalty to you, and that never any other person will have my heart; never, never..."

Oh, My god! Why do we have to be separated, when it's loving so? My life, the same here that in Vienna, it's full of spins. Your love have made me at the same time the happier be and the most unfortunate be. At my age, I'd need already an uniformity, some normality in my life. Can it be in our relations?... angel, I just know that the mail is up every day. And that makes me think that you'll receive the letter soon."

"Be quiet. Just watching with tranquillity our life we'll reach our goal to live together. Be quiet, love me. Today and yesterday, how I wish and how many drops thinking in you... in you... in you... my everything! Bye... ¡always love me! Don't distrust never of the loyal heart of your inloved Ludwig. Forever yours, forever mine, forever ours."

It's thought the letter was directed to a lady called Giulietta when she was 17 years old. It is not in anyway a fervent love letter.

Naturally is the letter written after a promise, but it is an embarrasming document that watch behind it to the loved and manifest the reasons of the separation, that doesn't consist only in the resistence of the fathers. It's a decisive document in what is refers to the state of the soul of Beethoven, which nature made him search and need in the true klife the renunciation. That's why he named her "The Inmortal Beloved": because not even she and he valued to realize together the perishment love. No, it's nothing less and nothing more than a bye to the loved idol.
