by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749 - 1832)
An die Entfernte See original
Language: German (Deutsch)
So hab ich wirklich dich verloren, Bist du, o Schöne, mir entflohn? Noch tönt in den gewohnten Ohren Ein jedes Wort, ein jeder Ton. So wie des Wandrers Blick am Morgen Vergebens in die Lüfte dringt, Wenn, in dem blauen Raum verborgen, Hoch über ihm die Lerche singt: So dringet ängstlich hin und wieder Durch Feld und Wald und Busch mein Blick; Dich rufen alle meine Lieder; O komm, Geliebte, mir zurück!
