by Friedrich Rückert (1788 - 1866)

Wenn ich zu Walde geh mit meiner Schönen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wenn ich zu Walde geh mit meiner Schönen,
So gucken vor aus allen Büschen Faunen,
Die in die [siebenröhrige]1 Flöte stöhnen,
Daß sie Gefallen finden an der Braunen.
Und wenn wir gehn zum Strand hinab, so dröhnen
Tritonen laut in ihre Meerposaunen,
Ein Zeichen gebend allen Wogensöhnen,
Des festen Lands Meerwunder anzustaunen.
