2. Täuschung  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich glaubte, die Schwalbe träumte schon
Vom theuren Nest;
Ich glaubte, die Lerche dachte schon
Ans Liederfest;
Ich glaubte, die Blüten küßte schon
Ein junger West;
Ich glaubte, ich hielte Dich liebend schon
Auf ewig fest!
 
Wie wurdet ihr winterlich über Nacht,
Ihr Lüfte lind!
Wie Knospen und Blüthen über Nacht
Erfroren sind!
Wie die Lerche verlernte über Nacht
Ihr Lied geschwind!
Und wie Du vergessen hast über Nacht
Dein armes Kind!

Confirmed with Karl Beck, Stille Lieder, Leipzig: Verlag von Wilhelm Engelmann, 1840, page 23.

Note: according to Lawrence Snyder in German Poetry in Song, Fallen Leaf Press, 1995, Holstein attributes this text to Hugo Staacke. Unless "Hugo Staacke" is found to be a pseudonym of Karl Beck, this is a confirmed misattribution.
