by Heinrich Stieglitz (1801 - 1849)

Vor Fitne's Zelt
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Der Sonnenbrand 
Dörrt aus das Land;
Mein Herz ist ausgebrannt.

Dein glühend Bild, 
Im Kampf mein Schild, 
Hat meine Brust erfüllt. 

Du Labequell, 
O riesle schnell 
In's Herz mir lind und hell! 

Gieb Kühlung mir! 
Nur Dir, nur Dir 
Harr' ich im Gluthsand hier.

Confirmed with Bilder des Orients von Heinrich Stieglitz, Erster Band, Leipzig, bei C. Cnobloch, 1831, page 11.
