by Ernst von Wildenbruch (1845 - 1909)

Zwei Sträusse
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Hier von Frühlingsblumen
   Bring' ich einen Strauß,
Wähle, liebes Mädchen,
   Dir die schönsten aus.

Blaue, weiß' und rothe,
   Gar verschied'ner Art,
Aber duftig alle,
   Alle hold und zart.

Hier von Frühlingsliedern
   Bring' ich einen Strauß,
Wähle, liebes Mädchen,
   Dir die liebsten aus.

Klingen gar verschieden,
   Hoffend, sehnsuchtsbang,
Doch es tönt durch alle
   Ein verwandter Klang:

Willst du sie verstehen,
   Schau' ins Auge mir:
Süßes Kind, "er liebt dich"
   Sagt ein jedes dir.

Confirmed with Lieder und Balladen von Ernst von Wildenbruch, Dritte Auflage, Berlin: Verlag von Freund & Jeckel, 1887, page 36.
