Wie der stöhnende Wind durch die Nacht Stürmt mein Verlangen nach dir, Jede Sehnsucht ist aufgewacht -- O du, die mich krank gemacht, Was weißt du von mir! Leise lösch ich mein spätes Licht, Fiebernde Stunden zu wachen, Und die Nacht hat dein Angesicht, Und der Wind, der von Liebe spricht, Hat dein unvergeßliches Lachen!
