by (Gustav) Hermann Kletke (1813 - 1886)

Vorüber
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
  Vorüber, wo die lichte Rose
In süßen Düften träumt und glüht,
Vorüber, wo im Windgekose 
Die volle Ähre schwankt und müht! 

  Vorüber, wo die dunkelhelle 
Waldstille birgt der Liebe Rast,
Vorüber, wo die muntre Quelle
Fortplaudert in geschwätz'ger Hast! 

  Vorüber, an dem bängsten Traume,
Vorüber an der frohste Lust -- --
Du rascher Fuß, daß du am Raume
So engen Grabes halten mußt!
