by Eduard (Freiherr von Czeike) von Badenfeld (1800 - 1860), as Eduard Silesius

Allein
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich bin allein!  
Bin in die Fremde weit verbannt, 
Wo nichts dem Fremden anverwandt, 
Aus meinem lieben Vaterland. 
Wer faßt die namenlose Pein? 
Ich bin allein!  

Ich bin allein!
Bin von den Freunden weit getrennt; 
Hier, wo mich keine Seele kennt, 
Wer faßt die Sehnsucht, die mich brennt 
Ins wundgeschloss'ne Herz hinein? 
Ich bin allein!  

Ich bin allein! 
Doch nein!  Erinn'rung bess'rer Zeit 
Und Hoffnung, daß sie sich erneut, 
Mir ewig frische Rosen beut; 
Mit diesen Zwei'n bin ich  --  o nein! 
Nicht ganz allein. 

Confirmed with Eduard Silesius, Gedichte, erstes Bändchen, Wien: Carl Gerold, 1846, pages 17 - 18. Appears in Lieder aus der Ferne, no. 10
