by Franz Xaver Trautmann (1813 - 1887)

Das verlassene Kind
NOTE: the footnotes have been removed from this text; return to general view
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ein Blümlein steh ich einsam da,
So einsam, ach, so allein;
Es sehnt sich fort, o weit, weit fort,
Und da, da muss es sein!

Sie rissen mich vom lieben Heim
Und führten mich daher.
Wie soll's in fremder Erde blühn,
In Sehnsucht immer mehr?

O Mutterliebe weiß es fern
Und muss verlassen sein.
O Mütterlein, so weit von dir
Muss ich verkommen allein!
