Album-Blätter

by Johann Wolfgang von Ehrenstein (d. 1870)

8. Dein Bild  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Dein Bild, das [makellose]1,
Vor meiner Seele steht, 
So schön wie eine Rose, 
So rein wie ein Gebet. 

In stummer Andacht weil' ich
Davor bei Tag und Nacht, 
Und bin mir selber heilig, 
[Wenn]2 ich an dich gedacht. 

Text Authorship:

  • by Michel Berend (1834 - 1866), "Weibesheiligkeit"
