Du liebes Auge, willst dich tauchen
Language: German (Deutsch)
Du liebes Auge, [willst dich tauchen]1, In meines [Augs]2 [geheimste]3 Tiefe, Zu [spähen]4, wo in blauen Gründen Verborgen eine Perle schliefe? Du liebes Auge, tauche nieder, Und in die klare Tiefe dringe Und lächle, wenn ich dir [dein Bildniß]5 Als schönste Perle wiederbringe.
