by Carl Ernst Kohlhauer (b. 1815)

Schlumm're sanft
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Schlumm're sanft, Du Dichterherz :
Voll von Wehmuth, voll von Schmerz,
Hast die Lieder Du gesungen,
Bis die Harfe Dir gesprungen ; --
Schlumm're sanft, Du Dichterherz!

Schlumm're sanft, Du Dichterherz :
Voll von Wehmuth, voll von Schmerz,
Nah' ich mich den Blüthenzweigen,
Die sich Deinem Hügel neigen;
Schlumm're sanft, Du Dichterherz!

Schlumm're sanft, Du Dichterherz :
Voll von Wehmuth, voll von Schmerz,
Singt Dir von dem Busch hernieder
Nachtigall die Wiegenlieder;
Schlumm're sanft, Du Dichterherz! 

Confirmed with Lyrisches Album aus dem Lahngan, herausgegeben von Dr. Paul Wigand, Gießen, J. Ricker'sche Buchhandlung, 1858, pages 84-85.
