Glück

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT FRE

Das machte dein stiller, keuscher Blick -
nun hab ich dich herzlich lieb.
In meiner Seele ein Leuchten blieb,
ein süßes, heimliches Glück.
Nun hör' ich durch alle Lüfte ziehn
ein friedefrommes Tönen
von großen, von tiefen, schönen
Heimwehmelodien.
