by Franz (Seraphicus) Grillparzer (1791 - 1872)

Seid ihr vorausgegangen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Seid ihr vorausgegangen,
Liebe Gefährten der Reise, 
Wohnung mir zu bereiten, 
Der noch im Staube des Wegs? 

Sucht mir ein Kämmerchen, Liebe, 
Still und freundlich und klein, 
Doch in eurer Nähe;  
Ich bin nicht gern allein. 

Heimlich sei es und stille, 
Schatten mäß'ge den Tag, 
Daß ich gern sitzen und sinnen, 
Dichten und denken mag.
