by Friedrich Rückert (1788 - 1866)

Die Stunde sei gesegnet
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  FRE
Die Stunde sei gesegnet,
Wo ich dir bin begegnet,
Wenn diese Liebe Lust
Dir weckt in stiller Brust,
Wie Tau auf Blumen regnet!

Der Stunde sei geflucht,
Wo ich dein Herz gesucht,
Wenn in dir diese Liebe
Statt milder Freudentriebe
Soll tragen herbe Frucht! --

Gesegnet ist die Stunde,
Sprach sie mit süßem Munde,
Mir ist kein Weh gescheh'n;
Den Himmel fühl' ich stehn
In meines Herzens Grunde.
