Разгадка
Language: Russian (Русский)
Как приливала к сердцу Вся кровь в груди моей, Когда в меня вперялись Лучи твоих очей! Мне долго непонятен Был их язык немой... Искал его значенья И с страхом и тоской... Вдруг все сомненья пали И страх навек затих... Мой ангел, все я понял В один блаженный миг, В блаженный миг, В один блаженный миг!

Rätsel
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Russian (Русский)
In deinen Augen schlummert Ein holdes Rätselwort, Das meine Blicke bannte An den geweihten Ort. Lang forscht' ich nach dem Zauber Zu öffnen deinen Mund, Verborg'nen Schatz zu heben Sucht' ich die rechte Stund'. Nun schaue ich hernieder In deines Herzens Schacht, Dein Kuss löst mir das Rätsel, Das mich so selig macht! Ich las in deinen Blicken, Was ich nicht wissen sollt'; Ich sah, dass du die Meine, Das Rätsel ist zu hold. Seit ich das Wort gefunden, Das dich mir eigen gab, Ruht traulich es verschlossen In meines Herzens Grab. Dort soll es ewig ruhen, Dort raubt es keiner mir, Und nur mit meinem Leben Gäb' ich's zurück selbst dir.
