by Joseph Stierle-Holzmeister (1781 - 1848)

Dein Auge
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Dein dunkles Auge gleicht der Nacht,
durchstrahlt von tausend Liebessternen,
aus deren ahnungsreichen Fernen
ein heit'rer Himmel niederlacht.

Und wie des Mondes mildem Licht,
ist deinem Blick ein Zauber eigen,
denn alle Leidenschaften schweigen,
nur schwärmerische Sehnsucht nicht.

[Wohl fühl' ich, dass]1, seit jener Blick
voll süßer Rätsel mich getroffen -
wer ein Mal sah den Himmel offen,
sehnt ewig sich nach ihm zurück!
