Flieder
Language: German (Deutsch)
Die stillen Siebengassen
Leuchten im Morgen licht.
In blauen duft'gen Massen
Hängt hier der Flieder dicht.
Und plötzlich bleib ich stehen,
Nicht weiter will mein Fuss --
Mir ist als müsst ich sehen
Der dunklen Augen Gruss.
Sieh, Liebster, immer wieder
Sehn' ich mich still zurück -- -- --
Es blüht der blaue Flieder -- -- --
Glaubst du noch an ein Glück!?

Lilac
Language: English after the German (Deutsch)
The silent seven streets
Shine brightly in the morning.
Blue, scented masses hang
Thickly upon the lilac.
And suddenly I stop,
My foot will go no further --
It seems to me as if I must see
The greeting of the dark eyes.
You see, beloved, ever and again
I quietly yearn to return -- -- --
The blue lilac is blooming -- -- --
Do you still believe in a happiness!?
