by Ernst Scherenberg (1839 - 1905)

Lenzzauber
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Als wollte Winterqual nicht enden
lag starr die Welt und tot mein Sinn.
Da plötzlich streut mit Götterhänden
der Lenz all seine Zauber hin.

Beseligt Schauen, traumhaft Lauschen
in Wunderfülle schwelgt der Mai,
wills müdes Herz auch dich berauschen
als ob noch einmal Frühling sei.

Solch Märchenglück hat keine Dauer,
schon dräut es schwül ob aller Pracht
stirb Seele denn vor Wonneschauer,
im Wetterstrahl der Frühlingsnacht!
