Stiller fliedertrunkner Sommerabend, Steigest hernieder du in ruhiger Pracht Bringest die Sehnsucht mir, duftschwer und labend Folgt dir die maienklingende singende Nacht. Leise hauchet die Luft, und leise bewegen Die Bäume und Sträucher ihre Wipfel, sehnend und schwer Nicken dir befruchtenden Nacht sie entgegen! Rufen die heimlich trunkenen Wünsche mir her.
