by Christian Morgenstern (1871 - 1914)

Der Traum
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Es war ein süsser Traum
                von Dir, -
            was, weiß ich kaum.
            Doch seine Süßigkeit
                blieb mir
            den ganzen Tag, -
daß, als mein Schlittengleis
            zur Abendzeit
            die Straße lief,
da deine Wohnung lag,
            der Heide, ich,
                ein leis
            » Gott segne dich «
            als jenes süßen
Traumes letztes Grüßen
                rief.
