Ich denke dein
 (Sung text for setting by E. Zumsteeg)

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  FRE
Ich denke dein, wenn sich im Blüthenregen
  Der Frühling malt,
Und wenn des Sommers mild gereifter Segen
  In Ähren strahlt.

Ich denke dein, wenn sich das Weltmeer tönend
  Gen Himmel hebt,
Und vor der Wogen Wuth das Ufer stöhnend
  Zurücke bebt.

Ich denke dein, wenn sich der Abend röthend
  Im Hain verliert,
Und Philomelens Klage leise flötend
  Die Seele rührt.

Beim trüben Lampenschein, in bitterm Leiden
  Gedacht' ich dein,
Die bange Seele flehte, nah am Scheiden:
  Gedenke mein!

Ich denke dein, bis wehende Cypressen
  Mein Grab umziehn,
Und auch im Tempe's Hain soll unvergessen
  Dein Name blühn.
