Winter
Language: German (Deutsch)
Die Erde steht verschwiegen
Wie eine liebende Maid,
Sie hüllet ihren Busen
Ins weisse Winterkleid,
Doch schweigsam harrend trägt sie
Verschlossen tief in der Brust
Mit allen ihren Blumen
Die nahende Frühlingslust.
Die Blüten keimen verborgen
Im stillen seligen Drang,
Bis einst die liebende Sonne
Den Winterfrost bezwang,
Dann blühen sie und duften
Und schliessen die Kelche auf,
Und winden ihre Grüße
Der harrenden Sonne hinauf.
