by Georg Busse-Palma (1876 - 1915), as Georg Paul Busse

Wunsch
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich will nicht Ruhm und nicht Unsterblichkeit,
Ein Plätzchen nur, abseits von Sturm und Streit,
Auf dem ich friedlich an besonntem Tag               
Die Augen schließen und entschlummern mag.

Confirmed with Lieder eines Zigeuners von Georg Busse-Palma; zweite, vermehrte Auflage, Stuttgart und Berlin: J. G. Cotta'sche Buchhandlung Nachfolger, 1908, page 166.
