by Ottilie Kleinschrod, née Stieler (1830 - 1913)

Träumen im Winter
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Ich träumte, Du wärst bei mir;
   Ich hegte Dich still [am]1 Herzen;
Von all' meinen Wonnen Dir
   Erzählt' ich und meinen Schmerzen.

Du hieltest mich bei der Hand
   In seligem Liebeskosen,
Und draußen [blühte]2 das Land
   Im Schmucke der Maienrosen.

[Als ich, erwachend, mich fand]3,
   Noch trunken von Deinem Scherzen:
Wie öd' der Winter im Land',
   Wie öd' der Winter im Herzen!
