Translations available : ENG 


Du sprichst von Scheiden? O sag' es nicht,
  Wie Abendroth verglüh' die Lust der Stunden; --
Schau, wie des Mondes sieggewohntes Licht
  Die weite, stille Waldnacht überwunden!

  Und lächelnd sich die Blumen ihm erschließen!

Ruh' mir am Herzen in sich'rer Hut!
  Ob Alles auch in leeres Nichts zerstiebe,
O glaube meines Kusses reiner Gluth:
  Weltüberdauernd, ewig ist die Liebe.
