by Barbara Elisabeth Glück (1814 - 1894), as Betty Paoli

Alles hinzugeben
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Alles hinzugeben 
  Ist der Liebe Brauch;
Nimm denn hin mein Leben, 
  Und mein Sterben auch!

Aller meiner Lieder
  Sanften Schmeichellaut,
Die ein Eden wieder 
  Sich aus Schutt erbaut;

Alle Lichtgedanken, 
  Die an Glück und Leid
Kühn sich aufwärts ranken 
  In die Ewigkeit;

All mein stilles Sehnen, 
  Innig dir vertraut,
Das in sel'gen Thränen 
  Auf dich niederthaut!

Nimm, daß nichts dir fehle, 
  Wenn die Stunde ruft,
Meine ganze Seele 
  Hin als Opferduft!
