Dein blaues Auge hält so still Matches original text
Language: German (Deutsch)
Dein blaues Auge hält so still, Ich blicke bis zum Grund. Du fragst mich, was ich sehen will? Ich sehe mich gesund. Es brannte mich ein glühend Paar, Noch schmerzt das Nachgefühl; Das deine ist wie See so klar Und wie ein See so kühl.
