Sie weiß es nicht, wie ich mich wiege 
  In Träumen von ihr, 
Und auf der Sehnsucht Schwingen fliege 
  Wachend zu ihr, 
Und wie ich immer flüstr' und kose
  Und rede mit ihr, 
Und stehen bleibe vor jeder Rose
  Als stünd' ich vor ihr; 
Wie all mein Sehnen, mein Verlangen 
  Strebet nach ihr, 
Und Alles mir ist aufgegangen 
  Einzig in ihr.
