Hör' ich das Liedchen klingen, Das einst die Liebste sang, [So will mir die Brust]1 zerspringen [Vor]2 wildem [Schmerzendrang.]3 [Es treibt mich]4 ein dunkles Sehnen Hinauf [zur]5 Waldeshöh', Dort löst sich auf in Tränen Mein übergroßes Weh'.

3. Die Lotosblume ängstigt  [sung text not yet checked]
Die Lotosblume ängstigt Sich vor der Sonne Pracht Und mit gesenktem Haupte Erwartet sie träumend die Nacht. Der Mond, [der]1 ist ihr Buhle Er weckt sie mit seinem Licht, Und ihm entschleiert sie freundlich Ihr [frommes]2 Blumengesicht, Sie blüht und glüht und leuchtet Und starret stumm in die Höh'; Sie duftet und weinet und zittert Vor Liebe und Liebesweh.

4. Mir träumte von einem Königskind  [sung text not yet checked]
Mir [träumte]1 von einem Königskind, Mit nassen, blassen Wangen; Wir sassen unter der grünen Lind' Und hielten uns liebeumfangen. "Ich will nicht deines Vaters Thron, Ich will nicht sein Scepter [von]2 Golde, Ich will nicht seine demantene Kron', Ich will dich selber, du Holde!" Das kann nicht sein, sprach sie zu mir, ich liege ja im Grabe, und nur des Nachts komm' ich zu dir, weil ich so lieb dich habe.
