by Ricarda Octavia Huch (1864 - 1947)

Zum Kamin den Sessel rück' ich
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  FRE
Zum Kamin den Sessel rück' ich,
Knie mich davor nieder;
In die leeren Kissen drück' ich
Meine tränenmüden Augenlider.
Denkst du fern auf dunklen Wegen,
Wie ich so vor dir gelegen,
Wenn die Dämmerung gewaltet,
Meine Händ' in deinen Schoß gefaltet?
