by Richard Volkmann (1830 - 1889), as Richard Leander

Gieb' mir die süssen Düfte
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Gieb' mir die süssen Düfte,
Die deinen Kelch' entschweben!
Sprach' der wehende Wind, und das Veilchen
Hat sie ihm alle gegeben. 

Gieb' mir dein Herz und dein Auge,
Deine Lust, dein Hoffen, dein Beben!
Sprach' ich, und die Geliebte
Hat es mir alles gegeben.
