by Emanuel von Geibel (1815 - 1884)

Nun hast du dich ergeben
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Nun hast du dich ergeben
Mir ganz mit Seel' und Leib,
O du mein süßes Leben,
Mein Lieb, mein Kind, mein Weib.

Nimm hin denn sonder Schranke,
Nimm hin auch du, was mein!
Mein innerster Gedanke,
Mein letzt Gefühl ist dein.

Gott schickt hinfort uns beiden
Ein Gluck nur, Eine Noth,
Und Nichts mehr kann uns scheiden,
Es scheid' uns denn der Tod.
