by Hermann Allmers (1821 - 1902)

Manch schöne Stunde schlug mir einst
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Manch schöne Stunde schlug mir einst,
Ich höre den Klang noch heut,
Der summt und schauert durch mein Gemüth,
Wie verhallendes Glockengeläute.

Und manchen Trost und manchen Traum
Hab' ich zu Grabe getragen;
Ein großer Friedhof ward davon,
Ich sehe die Male ragen.

Nun tret' ich still von Mal zu Mal
Und sinne, was es bedeute,
Im Herzen tief vom verlornen Glück
Das verhallende Glockengeläute.
