by Franz Adolf Friedrich von Schober (1796 - 1882)

Auf dem Blätterlager
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Einst sangt ihr über mir, 
Ihr Lieblichen, mit leisem, 
Geheimnißvollem Ton 
Die wundersamsten Weisen; 
Ihr Blätter über mir!  

Nun lieg' ich über euch 
In wachen Traumesbanden! 
Ihr seid verstummt und habt 
Mein Schmerzlied nicht verstanden, 
Ihr Blätter unter mir. 

Wenn wieder über mir 
Ihr rauscht im Windeswehen,
Werd ich eu'r Todtenlied, 
Das heis're, dann verstehen? 
Ihr Blätter über mir! 

Confirmed with Franz von Schober, Gedichte, Stuttgart und Tübingen: J. G. Cotta'scher Verlag, 1842. Appears in Herbstlieder, no. 3, page 98.
