Hi-Sehnsucht was the driving notion behind much German romantic art, literature and music. There is no adequate translation, but people use "longing for the unattainable," or "yearning" or even "aspiration." The origins of the compound word, Sehnsucht, come from the German words for "longing" and "addiction" or "insatiable craving."
