by Karl Stieler (1842 - 1885)

Du bist's, du schöne Traute
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Du bist's, du schöne Traute,
An der mein Herz ward wund,
An der mein Frohsinn welkte,
An der verstummt' mein Mund!

Fort ist der Jugendschimmer,
Verloschen ist die Zier -
Und immer noch, noch immer
Hängt all' mein Herz an dir

Und an dem Leidgewinne,
Den ich bei dir gewann -
So selig ist die Minne,
So töricht ist ein Mann!
