Nur heim! nur heim! ist mein Gebet
 (Sung text for setting by M. Leitner)
 Matches base text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Nur heim, nur heim! ist mein Gebet!
Die ihr mich draußen nicht versteht,
nur heim! Doch nimmer in mein Haus,
dort trug man mein Liebstes heraus.

Nur heim! Sie legten in ein Grab
dich, bestes Herz der Welt;
dort führt mich hin, wenn ihr es wisst,
wo meine Welt begraben ist.

So stille sinkt ein Blatt vom Baum,
wie du entschliefst, wir sahen's kaum,
so stille. Selige, nimm du 
mich ewig heim in deine Ruh'!

    Set to music by Max Leitner , "Nur heim! nur heim! ist mein Gebet", op. 7 (Vier Lieder für 1 Singstimme mit Pianoforte) no. 2, published 1895 [ voice and piano ], München, Schmid Nachf.
