In dem Garten meiner Seele

In dem Garten meiner Seele steht ein goldener Baum;
Wehen meine Seufzer leise, klingt es wie tief im Traum 
Durch di blüthenschweren Zweige.

Süβer Frieden liegt darüber, losgelöst von Zeit und Raum.
Quellen rauschen silberglänzend Und von Ferne hört man kaum 
zauberhaft die Stimme einer Geige.
