by (Gustav) Hermann Kletke (1813 - 1886)

Wie berührt mich wundersam
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Wie berührt mich wundersam
Oft ein Wort von dir,
Das von deiner Lippe kam
Und vom Herzen mir!
Was ist mein, und was ist dein?
Ach, du weißt es nicht,
Wie aus dir in Lust und Pein
Meine Seele spricht.

Wie berührt mich wundersam
Oft ein Wort von dir,
Das von deiner Lippe kam
Und vom Herzen mir!
O, welch tief Geheimnis trägt
Still der Seele Band,
Daß aus beider Herzen schlägt,
Was ein Herz empfand.
