by Hanns Sachs (1881 - 1947)

Das Veilchen an den spanischen Flieder
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG FRE
Ich weiss nicht, ist's des Frühlings Macht,
Ist's, dass ich dich gesehn:
Ich denke traurig Tag und Nacht
Ans Wiedersehn.

Du wirst in Sommers Blütenpracht
Noch leuchtend stehn;
Ich muss im Reif der Winternacht
Vergehn.

Die letzten Düfte entathm' ich sacht
Im Frühlingswehn,
Und sterbend denk ich in der Nacht
Ans Wiedersehn.
