by Karl von Lemcke (1831 - 1913)

Schwarzaugige Maid aus Judas Stamm
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Schwarzaugige Maid aus Judas Stamm, 
Im kalten Nord geboren, 
Wie war an deiner heißen Glut
Sein trüber Hauch verloren. 

Du bist wie Sarons Rosen schön, 
Du bist der Liebe Bronne, 
In deinen Locken schläft die Nacht, 
Dein Aug' flammt Judas Sonne. 

Schwarzaugige Maid, der Blume gleich, 
In Judas Sonnenstrahlen, 
Verzehr' ich mich in deinem Blick
In Flammen und in Qualen -- 

Schwarzaugige Maid aus Judas Stamm, 
Erhör' mein heißes Flehen -- 
Gib mir nun auch des Südens Nacht, 
Daß ich nicht muß vergehen.
