by August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben (1798 - 1874)

Die Blumen sind verwelket
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Die Blumen sind verwelket,
Die du empfingst von mir;
Verklungen sind die Lieder,
Die ich gesungen dir.

Gern möcht' ich dir erneuen,
Was Freude dir gemacht,
Gern hätt' ich frische Blumen
Und Lieder dir gebracht.

Ach! wär' ich nicht gezogen
Weit in die Welt hinaus,
Den ganzen Frühling brächt' ich
Noch heute dir in's Haus.

Nun ist mir in der Ferne
Nach dir [so bang und weh]1,
Als ob nie ich dich [wieder]2,
[Nie, nie dich wiederseh.]3
