by August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben (1798 - 1874)

Meine Liebe lebt in Liedern
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Meine Liebe lebt in Liedern,
Die aus meinem Herzen kommen;
Nur dies Herz kann sie erwiedern,
Nur dies Herz hat sie vernommen.

[Und wie]1 Blum' und Wurzel wieder
Sterben in des Winters Tagen,
Sollt ihr einst auch meine Lieder
Und mein Herz zu Grabe tragen.
