by Moritz Hartmann (1821 - 1872)

Im Walde
Language: German (Deutsch) 
In Nebel und Duft der Halde
seh' ich dein Bildnis,
es wird mir zum Zauberwalde
die düstere Wildnis.

Der Himmel mit Mond und Sternen
liegt auf den Zweigen;
es wird zu mir aus den Fernen
das Glück sich neigen.

Es dunkelt zugleich und sprühet
im einsamen See,
es nachtet mein Herz und glühet
in Wonn' und Wehe.

Es lispelt von dir in den Hainen,
die Blumen klingen,
o könnt' ich vor Freuden weinen,
vor Schmerzen singen.
