Language: German (Deutsch)
Als wir hinter dem beblümten tore Endlich nur das eigne hauchen spürten Warden uns erdachte seligkeiten? Ich erinnere dass wie schwache rohre Beide stumm zu beben wir begannen Wenn wir leis nur an uns rührten Und dass unsre augen rannen – So verbliebest du mir lang zu seiten.
