by Friedrich Wilhelm Traugott Schöpff (1826 - 1916), as Wilfried von der Neun

Herbstlied
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT DUT ENG FRE
Durch die Tannen und die Linden
Spinnt schon Purpur her und hin;
Will mich Wehmut überwinden,
Daß ich bald im Herbste bin.

Nimmer! denn vom Walde klingen
Märlein mir und Sprüchelein,
Die mir süße Tröstung bringen
Ob erstorbnem Sonnenschein.

Ja, erstorben ist die Sonne
Und ihr Strahl ist ohne Macht!
Dennoch spricht von ferner Wonne
Greiser Wipfel Farbenpracht.
