by Heinrich Köhler (1852 - 1920)

Ich hab' dein Bild im Traum gesehn
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich hab' dein Bild im Traum gesehn,
Es war so mild, so engelschön;
Dein Auge sah mich fragend an
Und sprach zu mir, so treu's nur kann:
"Hast du mich lieb?"

Und finster war die Nacht umher, 
Als wenn die Welt gestorben wär, 
Doch tönt mir fort und ewig fort 
Dein liebes süßes Zauberwort: 
"Hast du mich lieb?"

Als ich bei dir am andern Tag
In deinen Armen träumend lag,
Da fühlt' ich es mit ganzer Lust,
Was mich bewegt in tiefster Brust:
"Ich hab' dich lieb!"

Confirmed with Liederperlen: eine Sammlung der neuesten und beliebtesten Lieder, Reutlingen: Rob. Bardtenschlager, no date given (1890's). pages 146 - 147, unattributed; also confirmed with Der Troubadour, ein Charakterbild. Published in Der Salon für Literatur, Kunst und Gesellschaft, erster Band, ed. by Dr. Franz Hirsch, Leipzig: A. H. Payne, 1882, page 438, attributed to Heinrich Köhler, but including only the first and third stanzas, which raises the possibility that the second stanza is not by Köhler.
