Schilt nicht! Ich kann nicht beten, Ich will nur im Vorübergehn An deine Stufen treten Und deine Augen sehn. Es ist ein reines Glänzen Um deine Stirn, das mich beglückt; Ich habe sie ja mit Kränzen Als Kind so oft geschmückt.

Language: German (Deutsch)
Ohne Schmuck und Perlenglanz Laß mich auf die Stufen legen, Stumm erflehend deinen Segen, Meiner Jugend welken Kranz. Kämpfe, Fahrten, Wunden viel, Ungenossene herbe Siege Ruhmlos durchgekämpfter Kriege Finden müde nun ihr Ziel. Lüste bunt und freudefarb Senken müdgewordene Hände, Ihr Gelächter ist zu Ende, Ihre rote Flamme starb. Sterbend, blaß und fieberwund Wollen sie, der Welt vergessen, Müd auf harte Stufen pressen Den verblühten Liebesmund.

Language: German (Deutsch)
Deinem Blick darf meiner nicht begegnen, Meine Seele, die so viel gelitten, Darf gebeugt nicht mehr die deine bitten: Wolle die verlorene Schwester segnen! Leise nur im allertiefsten Innern Will sie der gewesenen Schwesterzeiten, Der in Schmach verspielten Seligkeiten, Schweigend und mit Schmerzen sich erinnern.
