by Paul Wertheimer (1874 - 1937)

Fäden
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG ENG
Viele Fäden gleiten
Zwischen mir und dir,
Luftig-feine Saiten,
Drauf die Wünsche schreiten
Zwischen mir und dir.

Und aus Hin und Wider,
Wie die Fäden ziehn,
Web' ich meiner Lieder
Seidenes Gefieder
In das Dämmer hin.
