Abendständchen See original
Language: German (Deutsch)
Horch es klagt die Flöte wieder
Und die kühlen Brunnen rauschen,
Golden wehn die Töne nieder,
Stille, ... , laß uns lauschen!
Holdes Bitten, mild Verlangen,
Wie so süß zum Herzen es spricht!!
Durch die Nacht die mich umfangen,
Blickt zu mir der Töne Licht.
