Der Sand aus den Urnen (in English, The Sand from the Urns), is a German-language poetry collection by Paul Celan, published in Vienna in 1948.[1] It was the first publication of Celan in German, and contains one of his best-known poems, "Todesfuge" (written 1944-45).

The small edition contained many misprints, and was withdrawn by the author. The poems were republished together with other works in the 1952 collection, Mohn und Gedächtnis.
