by Otto Ernst Schmidt (1862 - 1926)

Tief glücklich
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Das ist der Segen dieser trüben Stunden,
Die mir ein sorgengrauer Himmel sendet:
Die sel'ge Mahnung, daß ich dich gefunden,
Zu der mein Blick aus jeder Nacht sich wendet,

Der Trost, daß meiner heißen Stirn nicht fehle
Die milde Tröstung deiner weichen Wange
Und ich im tiefsten Leid von ganzer Seele
Doch stets nach dir und nur nach dir verlange.

Confirmed with Otto Ernst Schmidt, Gedichte, Leipzig: L. Staackmann, 1902, page 77.
