Language: German (Deutsch)
Ich saß zu deinen Füßen In Waldeseinsamkeit; Windesatmen, Sehnen Ging durch die Wipfel breit. In stummen Ringen senkt' ich Das Haupt in deinen Schoß, Und meine bebenden Hände Um deine Knie ich schloß. Die Sonne ging hinunter, Der Tag verglühte all, Ferne, ferne, ferne Sang eine Nachtigall.
