Begegnung
 (Sung text for setting by K. Reinecke)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Sie saß am Rebenfenster
Im stillen Kämmerlein,
Und schaute hinaus in den Frühling
Und der Frühling schaute herein.

Und wer den Weg gegangen,
Blieb grüßend stille stehn,
Von allen den Blumen des Frühlings
 ...  die schönste Rose zu seh'n. 

Die schickte freundlich lächelnd
Ein frühlingsduftend Wort;
Nun kann ich fürder nicht weiter, 
Muss rasten hier fort und fort.
