by Otto Roquette (1824 - 1896)

In der Fremde
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Nun steigt der Rebenblüthe Duft
Von allen Hügeln nieder.
Nun rauschen durch die blaue Luft
Die goldnen Klänge wieder;
Die Klänge aus der schönen Zeit --
Das ist ein Weh und Herzeleid,
Daß ich nun ferne bin!

O schöner Strom, o blüh'ndes Thal,
Du wandernde Frühlingssonne,
Gieb mir nur noch ein Einzigmal
Den Becher jener Wonne!
Die ganze Seele dürstet hier,
Und jede Stunde kündet mir,
Daß ich nun ferne bin!

Confirmed with Gedichte von Otto Roquette, Dritte veränderte und vermehrte Auflage, Stuttgart: Verlag der J.G. Cotta'schen Buchhandlung, 1880, page 30
