Du kahler Dornenstrauß
Machst meinen Reichthum aus,
    Bring' mir entschwund'nes Glück
        Zurück, zurück! 

Einst war die Zeit wohl da,
Wo ich die Rose sah,
    Aus deiner Blätter Grün
        Voll Reiz erblüh'n; --

Bist nun gleich kahl und dürr,
Bleibst du doch theuer mir,
    Press' dich in stiller Lust
        Fest an die Brust.

Mein Herz! o klage nicht,
Wenn wund der Dorn dich sticht,
    Denk' an der Rose Zeit,
        Die dich erfreut'! --
