Gedenken
 (Sung text for setting by M. Wurm)
 See base text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Und wieder schlägt die Drossel im Gezweig
Des Blütenbaumes über mir;
Es öffnet sich des Lenzes Wunderreich,
Doch all mein Denken ist allein bei dir!
 
Von zartem Grün ist Baum und Busch belaubt.
Die Wonne all umher erdrückt mich schier;
Hier ruhte selig einst dein reines Haupt;
Ach, all mein Denken ist allein bei dir.
 
Geweiht von deinem Hauche Jahr um Jahr,
Für alle Zeit bleibt diese Stätte mir.
Vorbei der Traum, so rein, so wunderbar,
Doch all mein Denken ist allein bei dir!
