by Ludwig Amandus Bauer (1803 - 1846)

Du dunkles Auge, schliess dich zu
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Du dunkles Auge, schliess dich zu,
ich habe genug geschaut,
es ist geschehn um meine Ruh',
mein Herz, es pocht so laut.

Du dunkles Auge, schliess dich zu,
ich habe genug gesehn.
Nun werden frisch nach langer Ruh'
viel neue Lieder wehn.

Du dunkles Auge, schliess dich zu,
du Stern so wunderbar,
in meine Seele scheinest du
nun hell auf immerdar!
