by Adolf Friedrich, Graf von Schack (1815 - 1894)

Seitdem dein Aug' in meines schaute
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT DUT ENG FRE HEB ITA
Seitdem dein Aug' in meines schaute,
Und Liebe, wie vom Himmel her,
Aus ihm auf mich herniedertaute,
Was böte mir die Erde mehr?

Ihr Bestes hat sie mir gegeben,
Und von des Herzens stillem Glück
Ward übervoll mein ganzes Leben
Durch jenen einen Augenblick.
