by Carl Gottfried Theodor Chladenius (1759 - 1837)

Die Treue
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Nicht in heißen Liebesblicken,
wenn sich zitternd Herz an Herz,
Mund an Mund voll Liebe drücken,
nicht in süßer Liebe Schmerz
wohnt die Treue.
Tief nur in der stillen Brust
wohnt des Lebens Schirm und Lust,
wohnt die Treue.

Nicht in stummer Liebe Sehnen,
das die Brust zu Seufzern hebt,
wenn die Perle sanfter Tränen
aus dem matten Auge bebt,
wohnt die Treue.
Tief nur in der stillen Brust
wohnt des Lebens Schirm und Lust,
wohnt die Treue.
