by Else Lasker-Schüler (1869 - 1945)

Ein Liebeslied
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Aus goldenem Odem
Erschufen uns Himmel.
O, wie wir uns lieben ...

Vögel werden Knospen an den Ästen,
Und Rosen flattern auf.

Immer suche ich nach deinen Lippen
Hinter tausend Küssen.

Eine Nacht aus Gold,
Sterne aus Nacht ...
Niemand sieht uns.

Kommt das Licht mit dem Grün,
Schlummern wir;
Nur unsere Schultern spielen noch wie Falter.
