by Johann Georg Fischer (1816 - 1897)

Der Liebe Verlangen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Aus der Tiefe deiner Augen, 
Liebes, klares Angesicht, 
Unbegreiflich süßes Licht, 
Laß mich sel'ge Wahrheit saugen: 

Ob so theu'r ich deiner Seele, 
Daß in [ihrem ganzen Reich]1
Meiner Herrschaft keine gleich, 
Und zu deinem Glück nichts fehle.

Daß wir ganz geliebt uns haben,
Diesen Trost strahl' mir allein,
Eh' mit deinem Wunderschein, 
Liebes Aug', sie dich begraben.
