by Ernst Viktor Schellenberg (1827 - 1896), as Ernst Veit

Liebeswonne
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Die Welt, die weite Gotteswelt,
Und Au und Flur und Wald und Feld
Und du, o milder Sonnenschein,
Es schließt mein Herz euch alle ein,  -- 
O selige, selige Liebe! 

Euch raubt mir keines Menschen Spruch,
Und keine Wolk' ist groß genug,
Zu decken meines Himmels Blau,
Die ewig grüne Frühlingsau,  -- 
O selige, selige Liebe! 

Zieh' immer hin, du junge Maid,
Zieh' hin in alle Fernen weit,
In meiner Brust ist Himmelsruh,
Drin schläfst in stillem Frieden zu,  -- 
O selige, selige Liebe! 

Confirmed with Ernst Victor Schellenberg, Kleines Lieder- und Bilderbuch von Ernst Veit, Dresden, G. Schönfeld's Verlagsbuchhandlung, 1876, page 111.
