by Conrad Ferdinand Meyer (1825 - 1898)
Meine eingelegten Ruder triefen
Language: German (Deutsch)
Meine eingelegten Ruder triefen, Tropfen fallen langsam in die Tiefen. Nichts, daß mich verdroß! Nichts, daß mich freute! Niederrinnt ein schmerzenloses Heute! Unter mir - ach, aus dem Licht verschwunden - Träumen schon die schönern meiner Stunden. Aus der blauen Tiefe ruft das Gestern: Sind im Licht noch manche meiner Schwestern?
