by Karl Christian Tenner (1791 - 1866)

Das Mädchen im Garten
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Heut ist es ein Jahr, daß er grüßend dort
An der Hecke stand,
Und ich, wie jetzt, in der Laube hier
Ein Sträußlein band.

Noch immer, immer klingt mir im Ohr
Seine Stimme so süß:
"Ein Blümlein könnte mir bringen von dir
Ein Paradies!"

Was war ich damals, o damals doch
Für ein albernes Ding,
Daß ich ihm nicht gab, woran so sehr
Sein Herze hing!

Ach! käm' er noch einmal, noch einmal dort
Aus dem Walde heraus,
Ich wollt ihm ja geben so gern, so gern 
Den ganzen Strauß!

Confirmed with Gedichte von Karl Christian Tenner, Darmstadt: Eduard Zernin, 1870, page 116.
