by Heinrich Heine (1797 - 1856)
Mit deinen blauen Augen
Language: German (Deutsch)
Mit deinen blauen Augen Siehst du mich [lieblich]1 an, Da ward mir so träumend zu Sinne, Daß ich nicht sprechen kann. An deinen blauen Augen Gedenk' ich allerwärts: -- Ein Meer von blauen Gedanken Ergießt sich über mein Herz.
