by Karl Stieler (1842 - 1885)

Im Waldesweben ist es Ruh
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG FRE
Im Waldesweben ist es Ruh,
Die Veiglein thun die Augen zu,
Der Drossel letzter Sang verhallt -- --
Und nur wir Zwei sind noch im Wald!

Es dämmert leis -- feucht fällt der Thau,
Feucht ist dein Aug', du schöne Frau,
Und Alles stumm - kein Laut erschallt -- --
Und nur wir Zwei sind noch im Wald!

Mir graut, mir graut, du süße Fee,
Vor all' der Schönheit, die ich seh',
Mein Herz so heiß, dein Herz so kalt -- 
-- Und nur wir Zwei sind noch im Wald!
