by Heinrich von Reder (1824 - 1909)

Das Grab
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Inmitten auf dem Feld,
auf dem der Held gefallen,
drei dumpfe Salven knallen
inmitten auf dem Feld.

Im Feld zum Gruß ins Grab,
das kühl bedeckt den Streiter,
weint mancher treue Reiter
im Feld zum Gruß ins Grab.

Im Grab ist Fried' und Ruh',
da schlummern alle Herzen
befreit von Leid und Schmerzen;
im Grab ist Fried' und Ruh'!
