by Amélie Linz (1824 - 1904), as Amélie Godin

Daß ich so tief für dich empfinde
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Daß ich so tief für dich empfinde  
Geschieht ja nicht, weil ich es will! 
Es schlinget sich um mich so still
Wie um den Stamm sich rauft die Winde. 

Oft fühl' ich mich zu eng umsponnen,
Zu sehr des eignen Seins beraubt, 
Dann ring' ich plötzlich los das Haupt 
Empor zum freien Licht der Sonnen. 

Doch seltsam --  all die leichten Ranken,  
Eh' ich's nur ahne, klettern nach  --  
Wohin ich auch mich wenden mag, 
Umschlingend folgend die Gedanken!
