by Felix Ludwig Julius Dahn (1834 - 1912)

Du bist die herrlichste von Allen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  FRE
Du bist die herrlichste von Allen,
  So sonder Falsch, so schön und rein,
Ein Stern, vom Himmel frisch gefallen,
  Er könnte selbst nicht schöner sein.
Du bist ein stilles, [liebverklärtes]1
  Gemüth, von [Kindersinn]2 beseelt,
Und das Bewußtsein deines Werthes
  Die einz'ge Tugend, die Dir fehlt.
