by Heinrich Heine (1797 - 1856)

Meiner schlafenden Zuleima
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
  Meiner schlafenden Zuleima
Rinnt aufs Herz, ihr Thränentropfen;
Dann wird ja das süße Herzchen
Sehnsuchtvoll nach Abdul klopfen.

  Meiner schlafenden Zuleima
Spielt ums Ohr, ihr Seufzer trübe;
Dann träumt ja das blonde Köpfchen
Heimlich süß von Abduls Liebe.

  Meiner schlafenden Zuleima
Ström aufs Händchen, Herzblutquelle;
Dann trägt ja ihr süßes Händchen,
Abduls Herzblut rot und helle.

  Ach! der Schmerz ist stumm geboren,
Ohne Zunge in dem Munde,
Hat nur Thränen, hat nur Seufzer,
Und nur Blut aus Herzenswunde.
