by Georg Scheurlin (1802 - 1872)

Weder Mond noch Sterne
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Es gehen Mond und Sterne 
Nicht auf so fromm und klar, 
Als über einem Herzen 
Ein treues Augenpaar: 

Und weder Mond noch Sterne 
Beschirmen dich so licht, 
Als wie ein stillbeglücktes, 
Geliebtes Angesicht. 

Und weder Mond noch Sterne 
Verscheiden also bleich, 
Als wenn zwei Augen brechen, 
An Lieb' und Thränen reich.

Confirmed with Georg Scheurlin, Heideblumen: Gedichte, Heidelberg: Karl Winter, 1858, page 127. Appears in Wilde Rosen.
