by Anonymous / Unidentified Author and possibly by Johann Ludwig Uhland (1787 - 1862)
Ich denke dein
Language: German (Deutsch)
Bei jedem Lüftchen, dass sich regt, bei jedem Blatt, das sich bewegt, bei jedem Ton in Flur und Hain gedenk' ich dein. Bei jeder Blume, die erblüht, bei jedem Wölkchen, das entflieht, bei Sternenlicht und Sonnenschein gedenk' ich dein. Bei jedem Quell, der sich ergießt, bei jedem Halm, der neu entsprießt, in Freud' und Glück, in Not und Pein gedenk' ich dein.
