by Julius Karl Reinhold Sturm (1816 - 1896)

Genieße still zufrieden
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Genieße still zufrieden
den sonnig heitren Tag.
Du weißt nicht, ob hienieden
ein gleicher kommen mag.

Es gibt so trübe Zeiten,
da wird das Herz uns schwer,
dann wogt von allen Seiten
um uns ein Nebelmeer.

Da wüchse tief im Innern
die Finsternis mit Macht,
ging nicht ein süß Erinnern
als Mondlicht durch die Nacht.
