by Joseph Ernst von Koch-Sternfeld (1778 - 1866)

Treib' ich die Kühe zur Weide
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Treib' ich die Kühe zur Weide 
Flötend am Morgen [dahin]1,
Prangt sie im perlendem Kleide 
  [Rose]2! so denk' ich dein! 

Blicke ich suchend die Ziegen
Nieder ins freundliche Thal,
Seh' ich dein Hüttchen hier liegen:
  [Rose]2! so denk' ich dein! 

Schwebet im goldenen Strahle
Wieder die Sonne hinab;
Tönen die Glocken im Thale: 
  [Rose]2! so denk' ich dein! 

Toben im wilden Getümmel, 
Stürme vom hohen Gebirg;
Lachet uns freundlich der Himmel:
  [Rose]2! so denk' ich dein! 

Wenn sich die Fluthen sanft kräuseln 
Mögen ins liebende Herz
Spielende Weste dir's säuseln: 
  "[Rose]2! stets denkt' er dein."
