Just the word "Dämmersicht" (BAM) versus "low light vision".
I should look up some German love poetry, no idea how the words fare there...
Maybe, but the english language is also very capable of giving impressive and powerful words. Dreadnought or Vorpal (Schlachtschiff, Tödlich) are not nearly as threatening in german as they are in english.

On your other thought, I myself have some pride in german poetry, as long as you don't mention love poems or love songs.
German love songs all sound kitschy to me, whilst english love songs work their way right into heart and soul.
