by Wilhelm Müller (1794 - 1827)
Wo ein treues Herze See original
Language: German (Deutsch)
Der Müller.
Wo ein treues Herze
In Liebe vergeht,
Da welken die Lilien
Auf jedem Beet.
Da muß in die Wolken
Der Vollmond gehn,
Damit seine Thränen
Die Menschen nicht sehn.
Da halten die Englein
Die Augen sich zu,
Und schluchzen und singen
Die Seele zu Ruh'.
