Nur ein lächelnder Blick
 (Sung text for setting by R. Schumann)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT DUT ENG FRE
Nur ein lächelnder Blick von deinem strahlendem Auge! 
Und vom freudigen Licht fühl' ich mich innerst erhellt. 
So erheitert am nebligten Tag' ein freundlicher Strahl uns, 
Wenn den düsteren Flor plötzlich die Sonne durchbricht. 

Nur ein liebliches Wort aus deinem rosigen Munde! 
Und mein ganzes Sein fühl' ich belebend erquickt. 
So durchduftet, wie stark! ein Tröpfchen Öl, von der Rose 
Würz'ger Blume gepreßt, Locken und Brust und Gewand.
