Beethoven's 9th Symphony was inspired by the poem, written in 1785, An die Freude, by Friedrich von Schiller (1759 - 1805). Beethoven made extensive changes to the wording of the original poem to fit his 9th Symphony (in D minor, Op. 125), but seems to have preserved the original intent and meaning. See related links for detailed information and translations for the original poem and for the vocal adaptation used in this symphony.
The words to "Ode to Joy" were taken from a poem by Friedrich Schiller. Beethoven adapted this text for the final movement of his Symphony No. 9.

Beethovens 9th, second movement

Beethoven was mainly an instrumental composer.
He was completely death when he wrote the piece the 9th symphony. that will make you kind of crazy at the time specially if you are a composer.
