by August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben (1798 - 1874)

Veilchen, Rosmarin, Mimosen

Veilchen, Rosmarin, Mimosen,
Engelsüß und Immergrün,
Lilien, [Tausendschön und Rosen]1
Hier in meinem Garten blüh'n.

Alles hast du, was zum Kranze
Sich die Lieb' auf Erden flicht,
Nur das Glück, die Eine Pflanze, 
Findest du im Garten nicht.

Ob sie heimisch ist hienieden,
Wo sie wächset, wo sie blüht --
Liebes Herz, gieb dich zufrieden!
Hast du dich doch heiß bemüht.
