Im Blumenhaine am Bendemir kosen
NOTE: the footnotes have been removed from this text; return to general view
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the English 
Im Blumenhaine am Bendemir kosen 
Viel Nachtigallen den Tag entlang; 
Da saß ich ein träumendes Kind unter Rosen, 
Und lauschte dem süß mich umschwirrenden Sang. 
Den Hain und die Töne vergess' ich nimmer, 
Und denke, wenn still der Lenz mich umblüht, 
Ob Bülbül am ruhigen Bendemir immer 
Noch singet, und immer die Rose noch glüht? 

Ach nein!  die Rosen am Ufer verblichen, 
Doch pflückt' ich der Knospen im frischen Schein, 
Und sauge, wenn längst schon der Sommer entwichen, 
Noch duftenden Thau aus den Knospen ein: 
So birgt der Erinnerung bleichender Schimmer 
Noch Tropfen der Freude, die längst verblüht,  
So steht vor der Seele mir glänzend noch immer 
Der Hain, der am ruhigen Bendemir blüht.
