by Thelyma Nelly Helene Branco (1818 - 1894), as Dilia Helena

Ich sinke dir ans volle Herz
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich sinke dir ans volle Herz,
mir woget überschwänglich
ein weiches Weh, ein alter Schmerz
im Geiste unvergänglich.
Und glühend aus dem Auge bricht
Ein Tränenstrom hernieder,
und leise aus dem Herzen spricht
und sagt es ewig wieder:
ich liebe unaussprechlich dich
aus innerstem Gemüte;
ich liebe tief unsäglich dich,
du Geist der reinsten Güte.
