by Ludwig Amandus Bauer (1803 - 1846)

Draußen rieseln kalte Flocken
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Draußen rieseln kalte Flocken, 
Und ich leg' in sel'ger Lust 
Spielend mit den dunklen Locken 
Still mein Haupt an deine Brust. 

Draußen ist nur ew'ges Wirren, 
Kurz die Lust, und lang der Schmerz, 
Selig, wer nach langem Irren 
Findet ein treuliebend Herz. 

Draußen ist nur ew'ges Schwanken, 
Ruh'los zog mich's da hinaus, 
Und nun ruh' ich in Gedanken 
Still an deinem Herzen aus!
