by Johann Nikolaus Götz (1721 - 1781)

Der schwüle Tag hat sich verloren
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Der [schwüle]1 Tag hat sich verloren,
Die Nacht ist hier:
O Laura! was [dein Mund geschworen]2,
Das halte mir.

Sieh jenes Dach von Rebenblättern,
Wo niemand lauscht,
Wo du mit mir, vor allen Göttern,
Dein Herz vertauscht.

In diese Laube laß uns schleichen,
Die Venus schützt,
Auf der (für uns [zum guten]3 Zeichen!)
Ihr Vogel sitzt.

Dann blicke Luna [nach uns beyden]4
Von ihrem Thron,
Und seufze bey so vielen Freuden:
Endymion!
