by Friedrich Rückert (1788 - 1866)

Götter! Keine frostige Ewigkeit!
 (Sung text for setting by C. Sinding)
 Matches original text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Götter! keine frostige
Ewigkeit!
Eine freudenmostige
Jugendzeit,
Eine nie sich trübende,
Liebeswonnen übende
Seligkeit!

Nicht mit Lorbeerblatte mir
Lohn', o Welt!
Bleib', o Myrthenschatte, mir
Still gesellt,
Bis mir auf's vergessene
Grab einst der cypressene
Schatte fällt.
