by (Friedrich) Emil Rittershaus (1834 - 1897)

Der Nachtwind rauscht im Blüthenbaume
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Der Nachtwind rauscht im Blüthenbaume
Und alles ruht in tiefster Ruh´.
Nun schließt zum Schlaf, zu sanftem Traume
Mein süßes Lieb die Augen zu.

Der Mondschein in der nächt´gen Stunde
Durch ihre kleine Kammer geht
Und küßt von ihrem rothen Munde
Den letzten Laut vom Nachtgebet.
