by Joseph Karl Benedikt, Freiherr von Eichendorff (1788 - 1857)

Da unten wohnte sonst mein Lieb
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG FRE
[Da]1 unten wohnte sonst mein Lieb,
Die ist jetzt schon begraben,
Der Baum noch vor der Türe blieb,
Wo wir gesessen haben.

Stets muß ich nach dem Hause sehn
Und seh doch nichts vor Weinen
Und wollt' ich auch hinuntergehn,
Ich stürb' dort so alleine!
