by Johann Gottlieb Moritz Pläschke (1847 - 1914)

Bist du's
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Es sang mit hellem, goldnem Schall
im Rosenbusch die Nachtigall
ein Lied von Lust und Lieben.
Und wie ich schritt den Pfad entlang,
so sehnsuchtsvoll die Weise klang,
dass wie gebannt ich lauschend stand.
War es der Töne Zaubermacht,
war's, dass ich, Mädchen, dein gedacht,
was Tränen mir ins Aug' getrieben?

Note for line 7: the Eibenschütz score has "Wie es der Töne" but we have corrected the misprint.
