by Adolf Brand (1874 - 1945)

Am einsamen Fenster
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Am einsamen Fenster
Im stillen Haus
Sitzt ihr nun beide 
Und sinnt hinaus.

Bleich leuchten die Rosen 
Im Abendwehn. 
Goldene Sterne
Am Himmel stehn.

Du faltest die Hände, 
Der Vater singt. 
Von süßer Jugend 
Es rauscht und klingt!

Aus seiner Gitarre 
Wehklagt ein Traum
Und schwingt sich zitternd 
Von Baum zu Baum.

Die Haare, sie bleichen, 
Der Herbst verglüht... 
Doch treu bis zum Tode 
Die Liebe blüht!
