by (Karl) Gustav Häcker (1822 - 1896)

Warum weinest
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Warum weinest 
Denn im Lenze, 
Weiße Rose, 
Du allein? 
Tanzt und lacht ja 
Jedes Blümchen 
Rings in hellen 
Sonnenschein!  

Ach, du gleichest 
Einem Mädchen, 
Stille trauernd, 
Krank und blaß, 
Dem ein Jüngling 
Treu gelobet 
Und sein Schwören 
Falsch vergaß.
