Angst und hoffen wechselnd mich beklemmen Matches original text
Language: German (Deutsch)
Angst und hoffen wechselnd mich beklemmen · Meine worte sich in seufzer dehnen · Mich bedrängt so ungestümes sehnen Dass ich mich an rast und schlaf nicht kehre Dass mein lager tränen schwemmen Dass ich jede freude von mir wehre Dass ich keines freundes trost begehre.
