Zartes Herz
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Zartes Herz, 
tiefer Schmerz!
Was die Menge leicht empfindet,
was dem Leben leicht entschwindet,
gräbt sich tief ins zarte Herz,
tiefer Schmerz!

Zartes Herz,
langer Schmerz!
Was die Zeit wohltätig heilet,
froher'm Wechsel bald enteilet,
hält so fest das zarte Herz
langer Schmerz.

Zartes Herz,
süßer Schmerz!
Ach, von Tränen ganz durchdrungen
löset in Erinnerungen
selig sich das zarte Herz.
Süßer Schmerz!
