by Hermann Löns (1866 - 1914)

Erwartung
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  FIN
Unter der Linde
Da ist mein allerliebster Platz,
Da will ich warten
Auf meinen Schatz.

Lilien und Rosen
Die sind so wunderwunderschön
Am Gartentore
Da muß ich stehn.

Die Nachtigallen
Die schlagen immerimmerzu,
Es klopft mein Herze,
Gibt keine Ruh.

Warten, ach warten
Das kann ich nimmernimmermehr,
Nach meinem Schatze
Sehn' ich mich sehr.
