by August von Platen-Hallermünde (1796 - 1835)

Duften nicht die Laubengänge?
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG FRE
Duften nicht die Laubengänge?
Hör' ich nicht die Wipfel säuseln,
Linde Maienwinde kräuseln
Den umbüschten stillen Rhein;
Daß mich nicht der Mittag senge,
Winken mir verstohl'ne Schatten,
Rosenhage, Veilchenmatten,
Aber ach, ich bin allein!
 
Unterm blattgewebten Teppich
Hör' ich Nachtigallen schlagen,
Und die leichtern Echo tragen
Ihre Töne durch den Hain;
Längs der Eiche dehnt sich Eppich,
Wassernymphen lockt die Quelle,
Wo mit Welle lispelt Welle,
Aber ach, ich bin allein.
