by August Silberstein (1827 - 1900)

In der Dämmerung
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Der Abend wandelt leise,
die Lüfte ziehn so sacht,
es haben auf die Reise
sich Stern zu Sternlein aufgemacht.

Es geht ein sanftes Regen
durch Alles, was gebannet scheint,
o komm' mir leis' entgegen,
mein Lieb, sei still mit mir vereint.

Es feiern allerwegen
die Hände von des Tages Tun,
lass Hand in Hand uns legen
und Aug' in Auge selig ruhn.

Die Dämmerstunde bliebe
nur dürftig in dem Stundenkranz,
die Abendfeier der Liebe
verleihet ihr den höchsten Glanz.
