by Friedrich Konrad Müller von der Werra (1823 - 1881)

Ein Ringlein seh, ich blinken
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ein Ringlein seh, ich blinken 
Im goldnen Sonnenglanz;
Die Liebe seh' ich winken 
Mit einem Myrthenkranz.

Das Ringlein steckt am Finger 
Mir just so fest und stark:
Es wuchs mir deine Liebe 
Ties in das Lebensmark.

Das Ringlein wird wohl halten
Für längste Lebenszeit, --
Noch länger unsre Liebe,
Bis in die Ewigkeit!
