by (Karl) Wolfgang Müller von Königswinter (1816 - 1873)

Blütenweiß bestreuet schaute
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Blütenweiß bestreuet schaute
Durch das Fenster ich die Länder,
Drüber hell der Himmel blaute. -
Sind's des Frühlings Blütenbänder? -
Ach ein Reif war's, in der Sonne
Warmem Strahl ist er verschwommen,
Und beklommen
Dacht' ich an vergangnen Frühlings Wonne.

Schöne Zeiten stiegen nieder:
Helle Blicke, heiße Küsse!
Ruhten süß umschlungen wieder! -
Sind's der alten Liebe Grüße? -
Ach, ein Traum war's, den der Sonne
Früher Strahl hinweggenommen,
Und beklommen
Dacht' ich an vergangner Liebe Wonne.
