  Am stillen Hain,
Im Abendschein,
Wenn der Himmel sich röthet,
Wenn die Nachtigall flötet,
Gedenk' ich dein.
 
  Beim Mondenschein,
Am nahen Hain,
Den die Käfer durchschwirren,
Den die Täubchen durchgirren,
Gedenk' ich dein.
 
  Ich geh' im Hain
Wohl ganz allein,
Und seh keine Bäume,
Und sinne und träume
Von dir allein. --
