by Oskar Wiener (1873 - 1944)

Mein Herz
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT
Mein rotes Herz,
mein totes Herz
soll endlich, endlich Ruhe haben,
ich hab' es sacht
in dunkler Nacht
im tiefen, tiefen Schnee begraben.

Im weichen Schnee,
im bleichen Schnee
erblühten rote Sünden;
Mein armes Herz,
mein kaltes Herz
kann keinen Frieden finden.
