An Chloë

Our translations:  CHI DUT ENG FRE ITA JPN LIT NOR
Wenn die Lieb' aus deinen blauen,
Hellen, offnen Augen sieht,
Und vor Lust hineinzuschauen,
Mir's im Herzen klopft und glüht;

Und ich halte dich, und küsse
Deine Rosenwangen warm;
Liebes Mädchen, und ich schließe
Zitternd dich in meinem Arm!

Mädchen, Mädchen! und ich drücke
Dich an meinen Busen fest,
Der im letzten Augenblicke
Sterbend nur dich von sich läßt;

Den berauschten Blick umschattet
Eine düstre Wolke mir;
Und ich sitze dann ermattet,
Aber selig, neben dir;
