by Joseph Christian Freiherr von Zedlitz (1796 - 1869)

O süßer Zauber, wonnereich
Language: German (Deutsch) 
O süßer Zauber, wonnereich,
wer spricht dich aus, was kommt dir gleich,
wenn erste Liebe unbewusst
aufblitzt in jugendlicher Brust,
das [junge Herz]1 die ganze Last
der neuen Seligkeit nicht fasst,
ein Schauer durch die Sinne dringt,
die Sehnsucht unter Wonnen ringt?2
