1. Neuer Frühling  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ach, ich sehne mich nach Tränen,
Liebestränen, [schmerzenmild]1,
Und ich fürchte, dieses Sehnen
Wird am Ende noch erfüllt.

Ach, der Liebe süßes Elend
Und der Liebe bittre Lust
Schleicht sich wieder, himmlisch quälend,
In die kaum genes'ne Brust.
