Rauschendes Bächlein, So silbern und hell, Eilst zur Geliebten So munter und schnell? Ach trautes Bächlein Mein Bote sey Du; Bringe die Grüße Des Fernen ihr zu. All' ihre Blumen Im Garten gepflegt, Die sie so lieblich Am Busen trägt, Und ihre Rosen In purpurner Gluth, Bächlein, erquicke Mit kühlender Fluth. Wann sie am Ufer, In Träume versenkt, Meiner gedenkend Das Köpfchen hängt; Tröste die Süße Mit freundlichem Blick, Denn der Geliebte Kehrt bald zurück. Neigt sich die Sonne Mit röthlichem Schein, Wiege das Liebchen In Schlummer ein. Rausche sie murmelnd In süße Ruh, Flüstre ihr Träume Der Liebe zu.

2. Kriegers Ahnung
Language: German (Deutsch)
In tiefer Ruh liegt um mich her Der Waffenbrüder Kreis; Mir ist das Herz so bang und schwer, Von Sehnsucht mir so heiß. Wie hab' ich oft so süß geträumt An ihrem Busen warm! Wie freundlich schien des Heerdes Gluth, Lag sie in meinem Arm! Hier, wo der Flammen düstrer Schein Ach nur auf Waffen spielt, Hier fühlt die Brust sich ganz allein, Der Wehmuth Thräne quillt. Herz! Daß der Trost Dich nicht verläßt! Es ruft noch manche Schlacht. - Bald ruh' ich wohl und schlafe fest, Herzliebste - Gute Nacht!

Language: German (Deutsch)
Säuselnde Lüfte Wehend so mild, Blumiger Düfte Athmend erfüllt! Wie haucht Ihr mich wonnig begrüßend an! Wie habt Ihr dem pochenden Herzen gethan? Es möchte Euch folgen auf luftiger Bahn! Wohin? Bächlein, so munter Rauschend zumal, Wollen hinunter Silbern in's Thal. Die schwebende Welle, dort eilt sie dahin! Tief spiegeln sich Fluren und Himmel darin. Was ziehst Du mich, sehnend verlangender Sinn, Hinab? Grüßender Sonne Spielendes Gold, Hoffende Wonne Bringest Du hold. Wie labt mich Dein selig begrüßendes Bild! Es lächelt am tiefblauen Himmel so mild, Und hat mir das Auge mit Thränen gefüllt! - Warum? Grünend umkränzet Wälder und Höh'! Schimmernd erglänzet Blüthenschnee! So dränget sich Alles zum bräutlichen Licht; Es schwellen die Keime, die Knospe bricht; Sie haben gefunden was ihnen gebricht: Und Du? Rastloses Sehnen! Wünschendes Herz, Immer nur Thränen, Klage und Schmerz? Auch ich bin mir schwellender Triebe bewußt! Wer stillet mir endlich die drängende Lust? Nur Du befreist den Lenz in der Brust, Nur Du!

4. Ständchen
Language: German (Deutsch)
Leise flehen meine Lieder Durch die Nacht zu Dir; In den stillen Hain hernieder, Liebchen, komm' zu mir! Flüsternd schlanke Wipfel rauschen In des Mondes Licht; Des Verräthers feindlich Lauschen Fürchte, Holde, nicht. Hörst die Nachtigallen schlagen? Ach! sie flehen Dich, Mit der Töne süßen Klagen Flehen sie für mich. Sie verstehn des Busens Sehnen, Kennen Liebesschmerz, Rühren mit den Silbertönen Jedes weiche Herz. Laß auch Dir die Brust bewegen, Liebchen, höre mich! Bebend harr' ich Dir entgegen; Komm', beglücke mich!

Rauschender Strom, Brausender Wald, Starrender Fels Mein Aufenthalt.

7. Abschied
Language: German (Deutsch)
Ade, Du muntre, Du fröhliche Stadt, Ade! Schon scharret mein Rösslein mit lustigem Fuß; Jetzt nimm noch den letzten, den scheidenden Gruß. Du hast mich wohl niemals noch traurig gesehn, So kann es auch jetzt nicht beim Abschied geschehn. Ade, Du muntre, Du fröhliche Stadt, Ade! Ade, Ihr Bäume, Ihr Gärten so grün, Ade! Nun reit' ich am silbernen Strome entlang, Weit schallend ertönet mein Abschiedsgesang; Nie habt Ihr ein trauriges Lied gehört, So wird Euch auch keines beim Scheiden beschert. Ade, Ihr Bäume, Ihr Gärten so grün, Ade! Ade, Ihr freundlichen Mägdlein dort, Ade! Was schaut Ihr aus blumenumduftetem Haus Mit schelmischen, lockenden Blicken heraus? Wie sonst, so grüß' ich und schaue mich um, Doch nimmer wend' ich mein Rößlein um. Ade, Ihr freundlichen Mägdlein dort, Ade! Ade, liebe Sonne, so gehst Du zur Ruh, Ade! Nun schimmert der blinkenden Sterne Gold. Wie bin ich Euch Sternlein am Himmel so hold; Durchziehn wir die Welt auch weit und breit, Ihr gebt überall uns das treue Geleit. Ade, liebe Sonne, so gehst Du zur Ruh, Ade! Ade, Du schimmerndes Fensterlein hell, Ade! Du glänzest so traulich mit dämmerndem Schein, Und ladest so freundlich ins Hüttchen uns ein. Vorüber, ach, ritt ich so manches mal Und wär' es denn heute zum letzten mal? Ade, Du schimmerndes Fensterlein hell, Ade! Ade, Ihr Sterne, verhüllet Euch grau! - Ade! Des Fensterlein trübes verschimmerndes Licht Ersetzt Ihr unzähligen Sterne mir nicht; Darf ich hier nicht weilen, muß hier vorbei, Was hilft es, folgt Ihr mir noch so treu! Ade, Ihr Sterne, verhüllet Euch grau! - Ade!

9. Ihr Bild
Language: German (Deutsch)
Ich stand in dunkeln Träumen Und starrt' ihr Bildniß an, Und das geliebte Antlitz Heimlich zu leben begann. Um ihre Lippen zog sich Ein Lächeln wunderbar, Und wie von Wehmuthsthränen Erglänzte ihr Augenpaar. Auch meine Thränen flossen Mir von den Wangen herab -- Und ach, ich kann es nicht glauben, Daß ich Dich verloren hab'!

11. Die Stadt
Language: German (Deutsch)
Am fernen Horizonte Erscheint, wie ein Nebelbild, Die Stadt mit ihren Thürmen, In Abenddämmrung gehüllt. Ein feuchter Windzug kräuselt Die graue Wasserbahn; Mit traurigem Tacte rudert Der Schiffer in meinem Kahn. Die Sonne hebt sich noch einmal Leuchtend vom Boden empor, Und zeigt mir jene Stelle, Wo ich das Liebste verlor.

Language: German (Deutsch)
Das Meer erglänzte weit hinaus, Im letzten Abendscheine; Wir saßen am einsamen Fischerhaus, Wir saßen stumm und alleine. Der Nebel stieg, das Wasser schwoll, Die Möve flog hin und wieder; Aus deinen Augen, liebevoll, Fielen die Thränen nieder. Ich sah sie fallen auf deine Hand, Und bin auf's Knie gesunken; Ich hab' von deiner weißen Hand Die Thränen fortgetrunken. Seit jener Stunde verzehrt sich mein Leib, Die Seele stirbt vor Sehnen; - Mich hat das unglückseel'ge Weib Vergiftet mit ihren Thränen.

13. Der Doppelgänger
Language: German (Deutsch)
Still ist die Nacht, es ruhen die Gassen, In diesem Hause wohnte mein Schatz; Sie hat schon längst die Stadt verlassen, Doch steht noch das Haus auf demselben Platz. Da steht auch ein Mensch und starrt in die Höhe, Und ringt die Hände, vor Schmerzensgewalt; Mir graust es, wenn ich sein Antlitz sehe, - Der Mond zeigt mir meine eigne Gestalt. Du Doppelgänger! du bleicher Geselle! Was äffst du nach mein Liebesleid, Das mich gequält auf dieser Stelle, So manche Nacht, in alter Zeit?
