by Liborio C. Porset (flourished c1880)
Translation by Friedrich Heinrich Oser (1820 - 1891)

Flogst zu den Engeln wohl hinein
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Spanish (Español) 
Flogst zu den Engeln wohl hinein 
In's selige Gewimmel 
Und holtest dir die Äugelein,
Mein Liebchen, aus dem Himmel! 

Ich merkt' es gleich als mich ihr Blau 
So jäh gesezt in Flammen:
Von drunten nicht von ew'ger Au
Muß solch ein Leuchten stammen!

Doch hüte dich! Verzehrt der Strahl,
Den du geraubt, mein Leben:
Dem Himmel wirst für meine Qual 
Du müßen Rechnung geben! 

Confirmed with Neue Lieder von Friedrich Oser (1874-1884.), Basel, Verlag von M. Bernheim, 1885, page 118.

Note: in many older editions, the spelling of the word "Äuglein" becomes "Aeuglein", but as can be seen in how "über" becomes "Ueber" when capitalized, this is due to the printing process and not to rules of orthography, so we use "Äuglein".
