by Stefan Zweig (1881 - 1942)

Nach Hause
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Längst ist kein Lichterglanz mehr wach;
Im Nebelmeer versunken

Sind Thurm und Häuser, Dach für Dach. –
Nur wir allein ziehn sehnsuchtstrunken
Dem gold'nen Venussterne nach.

Der führt uns dunklen Wegen zu
In zärtlichem Begleiten. –

Das Herz blüht auf von Glück und Ruh . . .
Das Ziel, dahin wir selig schreiten,
Wir ahnen's beide, ich und Du . . .

Confirmed with Stefan Zweig, Silberne Saiten; Gedichte, Berlin und Leipzig: Schuster & Loeffler, 1901
