by Stefan George (1868 - 1933)

Lass deine tränen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Lass deine tränen
Um ein weib .
Falsch ist dein wähnen .
Ruh und bleib !

Merk ob am boden
Schnee schon taut:
Wärmender odem
Βeete baut !

Vor seine feier
Juni schliesst
Ob ohne schleier
Du sie siehst?

Lass deine tränen
Um ein weib .
Falsch ist dein wähnen
Ruh und bleib !
