by Assim-Agha Gül-Hanandé
Translation by Bernhardine Schulze-Smidt (1846 - 1920)

Assim spricht
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Turkish (Türkçe) 
Our translations:  ENG
Ihr Blumen alle habt geplaudert
Von Assim's Lieb' und Liebesschwüren,
Von Augentrost und Mundverführen,
Und von [den Lippen]1, die geschaudert,
Weil Assim's Liebe nie gezaudert.

Ihr [Blumen, dir ihr duftgesegnet,
Im Garten prangt, o]2 fragt die Quelle.
Dort, wo den Marmor küsst die Welle,
Wie oft es Thränenzorn geregnet,
Weil Assim's Gluth dem Stolz begegnet.

[Und fragt den Lorbeer hoch und prächtig]3,
Wie rasch der Thränenzorn versiegte,
Der Stolz sich in die Fessel schmiegte,
Weil Assims Siegermuth allmächtig.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
Dem Lorbeer [gleichet Assim, dächt' ich]4!
