by Leopold Damrosch (1832 - 1885)

1. Bitte  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Weil' auf mir, du dunkles Auge,
Übe deine ganze Macht,
[Ernste, milde, träumerische]1,
Unergründlich süße Nacht!

Nimm mit deinem Zauberdunkel
Diese Welt von hinnen mir,
Daß du über meinem Leben
Einsam schwebest für und für.

4. Kommen und Scheiden  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
So oft sie kam, erschien mir die Gestalt
So lieblich wie das erste Grün im Wald.

Und was sie sprach, drang mir zum Herzen ein
Süß wie des Frühlings erstes [Lied im Hain]1.

Und als Lebwohl sie winkte mit der Hand,
War's, ob der letzte Jugendtraum mir schwand.

  • by Nikolaus Lenau (1802 - 1850), "Kommen und Scheiden", appears in Gedichte, in 4. Viertes Buch, in Liebesklänge

5. Liebesfrühling
 (Sung text)

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich sah den Lenz einmal
Erblühn im schönsten Tal;
Ich sah der Liebe Licht
Im schönsten Angesicht.

Und wandl' ich nun allein
Im Frühling durch den Hain,
Erscheint aus jedem Strauch
Ihr Angesicht mir auch.

Und seh ich sie am Ort
Wo längst der Frühling fort,
So sprießt ein Lenz und schallt
Um ihre süße Gestalt.
