by Else Lasker-Schüler (1869 - 1945)

Und hast mein Herz verschmäht
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Und hast mein Herz verschmäht -
In die Himmel wärs geschwebt
Selig aus dem engen Zimmer!

Wenn der Mond spazieren geht,
Hör ichs pochen immer
Oft bis spät.

Aus Silberfäden zart gedreht
Mein weiss Gerät -
Trüb nun sein Schimmer.
