by Luise Elisabeth Bertha Koch (1875 - 1966), as Maidy Koch

Am Mühlbach
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Ich höre in des Mühlbachs Rauschen
Nur immer deinen Lieblingsreim
Und werd' nicht müde ihm zu lauschen:
"Wenn's Frühling wird, dann kehr' ich heim!"
 
Wie oft hab' ich das Lied vernommen
Von dir im trauten Erlenthal!
Und als wir Abschied jüngst genommen,
Da sangst du mir's zum letzten Mal.
 
Noch seh' ich deine Lippen beben
Dabei in herber Abschiedspein
Und zitternd deine Hand mir geben,
O wird's wohl einmal Frühling sein?
