Klosterlied
 (Sung text for setting by M. Bruch)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Blumen an den Wegen,
Blumen um den Rain,
Haben Thau und Regen,
Duft und Sonnenschein.

Aber die der Bahre
Netzt kein Thau, kein Quell.
Blumen meiner Jahre,
Welktet ihr so schnell?

Wandle du ein Freier, 
Dem die Liebe lacht.
Gönne mir den Schleier,
Gönne mir die Nacht!

Blumen auf der Wiese,
Blumen in dem Wald,
Die im Paradiese
Welken nicht so bald!
