by Heinrich Seidel (1842 - 1906)

Weinlied
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Der schönste aller Sterne 
Hängt an das Schenken Haus.  
Er schaut so süß verlockend 
In die durstige Welt hinaus.  

Die schönste aller Rosen 
Blüht auf des Bechers Grund. 
Mit wonniglichem Kosen 
Küßt sie mein seliger Mund.  

Das schönste aller Mädchen 
Das mich am treusten liebt, 
Das ist die schöne Schenkin,  
Die mir zu trinken gibt. 

Confirmed with Heinrich Seidel, Blätter im Wind, Berlin: Rud. Hoffmann, 1872, page 70. Appears in Lieder.
