by Emil Kuh (1828 - 1876)

Deine Straße gingst du
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Deine Straße gingst du 
Und ich ging die meine,  
Aber auf dem Kreuzweg
Trafen wir zusammen

Und anstatt zu wandern
Bin ich steh'n geblieben
Und anstatt zu weilen
Bist du mitgegangen.

Ach, was soll das werden?
Fragst du dich im Stillen; 
Was es schon geworden,
Sagt mir meine Seele.
