by Franz Ferdinand, Freiherr von Dingelstedt (1814 - 1881)

Sie schaute mir in's Aug' hinein
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Sie schaute mir in's Aug' hinein
Und sprach: Was glänzt und glüht dadrein? 
-- Ei kennst du denn dein Angesicht 
Und deine eig'nen Züge nicht? 
Die glühen, die glänzen, 
Ein Bild in Rahmens Gränzen! 

Sie legte die Hand auf's Herze mein 
Und sprach: Was klingt und klopft dadrein? 
-- Da schlummern Lieder klein und groß 
Wie Kindlein in keuschem Mutterschooß, 
Die ringen, die dringen, 
Zu dir emporzuklingen!
