Lieb' und Freundschaft wandeln unter...

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Lieb' und Freundschaft wandeln unter guten,
Frommen Menschen tröstend auf und ab;
Treten weinend an ein Blumengrab,
Wo die Brust versank, an der sie ruhten.
 
Zu der Lichtwelt seufzen sie hinaus:
"Deinen Himmel haben wir verkündet;
Darum nimm uns, wenn hier alles schwindet,
Hehre Lichtflur, nimm uns rettend auf!"
 
Unter trauernden Erinnerungen
Liegt verschattet unser stille Pfad.
O, vergüte, was die Zeit verschlungen,
Und das Schicksal grausam niedertrat!
 
Unsre Herzen sind voll Totenmale,
Wie der Rasen im Cypressenthale.
Zwischen Gräbern seufzen wir hinauf:
"Hehre Lichtflur, nimm uns rettend auf!"
