by Anton Alexander, Graf von Auersperg (1806 - 1876), as Anastasius Grün

Weste säuseln deinen Namen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Weste säuseln deinen Namen,
Rosen zeigen mir dein Bild,
Und die Quelle, süß und mild,
Spiegelt es im Blütenrahmen.

Und in deinen Namen schlingen
Perlen sich im Wiesengrün;
In den Sternen les' ich ihn,
Hör' ihn, wenn die Wellen klingen.

Also, bin ich dir auch ferne,
Bleibst du doch mir ewig nah; -
Doch warum, wenn ich dir nah,
Bleibst du mir, ach! ewig ferne?
