by Friedrich Rückert (1788 - 1866)
Wie sich Schatten dehnen
Language: German (Deutsch)
Wie sich Schatten dehnen Vom Gebirg zum See, Fühlt mein Herz ein Sehnen Und ein süßes Weh. Wie die Möwen fliegen Fluter uferwärts, Möcht' ich nun mich schmiegen An ein treues Herz. Froh im Morgenschimmer Zieht der Wand'rer aus, Aber abends immer Möcht' er sein zu Haus.
