Treue Liebe
 (Sung text for setting by K. Reissiger)
 Matches original text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
All ihr Sterne 
Aus der Ferne, 
Leuchtet meiner Liebe zu;
All ihr Quellen, 
Mit den hellen 
Wellen rieselt sanfte Ruh!

Abendgluthen  
Strahlt aus Fluthen, 
Wie der Liebe Blick so traut;
Wipfel rauschet, 
Wenn er lauschet 
Zarter Liebe Seelenlaut!

Laßt sie denken, 
Süß sich senken
In das Herz, das ihn umschwebt;
Einsam Sinnen, 
Süßes Minnen, 
Da, wo Seel' in Seele lebt.

Herbes Trennen, 
Wer kann nennen
Deine Qualen, deinen Schmerz!
Doch auch ferne
Schließen Sterne 
Treuer Liebe Herz an Herz!

    Set to music by Karl Gottlieb Reissiger (1798 - 1859), "Treue Liebe", op. 23 no. 5 [ voice and piano ]
