by Wilhelm Conrad Gomoll (1877 - 1951)

Nach deinen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Nach deinen 
Lippen sehnen die meinen, 
Geliebte!
Wenn du es wüsstest 
du kämst und küsstest 
die Stunden fort! 

Zu Sternen 
blickend, in blaue Fernen
der Nächte 
das Aug' gewendet, 
hab' Gruss gesendet 
zum fernen Ort. — 

Mög' küssen, 
segnen, dich frommes Grüssen, 
umwogen 
mit Traumgestalten 
dich zärtlich Walten... 
träum' glücklich fort!
