by Anna (Nuhn) Ritter (1865 - 1921)

Sonnenregen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT ENG FRE
Ich gehe fremd durch die Menge hin,
Den irdischen Lauten entrückt,
Ich trage heimlich ein weißes Kleid,
Mit bräutlichen Zweigen geschmückt.
Es ist ein Singen und Blühn in mir,
Als trüg' ich den Lenz in der Brust --
Und liegt doch zitternd ein blasser Flor
Von Thränen über der Lust.

Confirmed with Anna Ritter, Befreiung. Neue Gedichte, Fünfte Auflage, Stuttgart: J.G. Cotta'sche Buchhandlung Nachfolger, 1900, page 5.
