Zwei Lieder

Song Cycle by August Daniel Ferdinand Victor Wilhelmj (1845 - 1908)

1. An deine Schneeweiße Schulter  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
An deine schneeweiße Schulter
Hab ich mein Haupt gelehnt,
Und heimlich kann ich behorchen,
Wonach dein Herz sich sehnt.

[Es]1 blasen die blauen Husaren,
Und reiten zum Tor herein,
Und morgen will mich verlassen
Die Herzallerliebste mein.

Und willst du mich morgen verlassen,
So bist du doch heute noch mein,
Und in deinen schönen Armen
Will [ich doppelt selig]1 sein.

2. Wenn ich in deine Augen seh'  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wenn ich in deine Augen [seh']1,
So schwindet [all' mein Leid]2 und Weh; 
Doch wenn ich küße deinen Mund,
So werd' ich ganz und gar gesund.

Wenn ich mich lehn' an deine Brust,
Kommt's über mich wie Himmelslust;
Doch wenn du sprichst: ich liebe dich!
[So]3 muß ich weinen bitterlich.
