O wüßtest du, wie viel ich deinetwegen, Du falsche Renegatin, litt zur Nacht, Indeß du im verschloßnen Haus gelegen Und ich die Zeit im Freien zugebracht. Als Rosenwasser diente mir der Regen, Der Blitz hat Liebesbotschaft mir gebracht; Ich habe Würfel mit dem Sturm gespielt, Als unter deinem Dach ich Wache hielt. Mein Bett war unter deinem Dach bereitet, Der Himmel lag als Decke drauf gebreitet, Die Schwelle deiner Thür, das war mein Kissen - Ich Ärmster, ach, was hab' ich ausstehn müssen!
