Verblühte Malven stehen Den Gartenweg entlang, Rosenblätter verwehen; In einer fernen Laube Tönt Laute und Gesang. "Wir wollen nimmer reden, Die Worte sind so schwer. Da nimm von den Reseden Noch einen Strauß zur Reise, Bald gibt es keine mehr." Nun ist sie weggegangen Mit ihrem leichten Schritt Und nimmt auf ihren Wangen Mir alle meine Rosen Und meinen Sommer mit.
