by Johann Peter Eckermann (1792 - 1854)

Seit ich liebe
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Seit ich liebe
Muß ich leiden.
Eh ich liebte
Hatt' ich tausend Freuden,
Hatte Ruh!
O du mein altes Glück,
Komm, ach komm zurück!
 
Und doch lass' ich
Alle Freuden,
Mag am süßen
Leid mich lieber weiden,
Immer zu!
Was sollt' alle das Glück!
Alle die Ruh! --
