by Heinrich Stieglitz (1801 - 1849)

Vorüberziehende Horden
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
    Seht, an der Schlucht dort
Lagern die Kurden;
Eilig zur Flucht fort,
Eh' wir bemerkt von den Lauernden wurden!
 
    Auf, nach dem Walde zieht
Hurtig, ihr Loren!
Wenn ihr nicht bald flieht,
Ist die gewonnene Beute verloren.
 
    Dort an dem Fahrpfad
Lagern wir wieder;
Wenn ihre Schaar naht,
Schießen wir aus den Gebüschen sie nieder.

Confirmed with Bilder des Orients von Heinrich Stieglitz, Zweiter Band, II. Persien, Leipzig, bei Carl Cnobloch, 1831, page 12.
