Cyclus

Song Cycle by F. de Rhin

5. Daß du mich liebst das wußt' ich  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Daß du mich liebst, daß wußt' ich,
Ich hatt' es längst entdeckt;
Doch als du mir's gestanden,
Hat es mich tief erschreckt.

Ich stieg wohl auf die Berge
Und jubelte und sang;
Ich ging ans Meer und weinte
Beim Sonnenuntergang.

Mein Herz ist wie die Sonne
So flammend anzusehn,
Und in ein Meer von Liebe
Versinkt es groß und schön.

6. Ich grolle nicht, und wenn das Herz auch bricht  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich grolle nicht, und wenn das Herz auch bricht,
Ewig verlor'nes Lieb, ich grolle nicht.
Wie du auch strahlst in Diamantenpracht,
Es fällt kein Strahl in deines Herzens Nacht.
Das weiß ich längst.

Ich grolle nicht, und wenn das Herz auch bricht,
Ich sah dich ja im [Traum]1,
Und sah die Nacht in deines Herzens [Raum]2,
Und sah die Schlang', die dir am Herzen frißt,
Ich sah, mein Lieb, wie sehr du elend bist.

8. Ich halte ihr die Augen zu  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich halte ihr die Augen zu
Und küss' sie auf den Mund.
Nun läßt sie mich nicht mehr in Ruh'.
Sie fragt mich [um den]1 Grund.

Von [Abend]2 spät bis Morgens fruh,
Sie fragt zu jeder Stund':
Was hältst du mir die Augen zu,
Wenn du mir küßt den Mund?

Ich sag' ihr nicht, weshalb ich's tu',
Weiß selber nicht den Grund --
Ich halte [ihr]3 die Augen zu
Und küss' sie auf den Mund.

Ich will meine Seele tauchen

Wie der Kuß von ihrem Mund,
Den sie mir einst gegeben
In wunderbar süßer Stund'.
