by Charlotte von Ahlefeld, née von Seebach , as Natalie

Umstarrt vom Eis des Norden
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Umstarrt vom Eis des Norden
Im trüber Einsamkeit,
Ist mir ein Blümchen worden
Das duftend mich erfreut.

Im Thaue bitt'rer Thränen
Entfaltete es sich,
Und heilte von dem Sehnen
Nach bess'rer Zukunft mich. 

Tief trag' ich es verborgen
In der verschwieg'nen Brust.
Da wandelt's meine Sorgen
In stiller Wehmuth Lust. 

Um mein Geschick zu tragen
Gab mir's des Himmels Huld.
Wie heißt es? wirst du fragen.
Das Blümlein heißt Geduld.
