by Otto Roquette (1824 - 1896)

Du liebes Auge, willst dich tauchen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT ENG FRE
Du liebes Auge, willst dich tauchen,
In meines Augs geheimste Tiefe,
Zu spähen, wo in blauen Gründen
Verborgen eine Perle schliefe?

Du liebes Auge, tauche nieder,
Und in die klare Tiefe dringe
Und lächle, wenn ich dir dein Bildniß
Als schönste Perle wiederbringe.
