by Albert Träger (1830 - 1912)

Kleine Blume im engen Thal
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Kleine Blume im engen Thal,
Dich auch fand der Sonne Strahl,
Armes Herz in der kranken Brust,
Dir auch ward der Liebe Lust.

Und die Blume das Köpfchen hing,
Als die Sonne weiter ging,
Und das Herz es brach entzwei
Als das kurze Glück vorbei!
