by Friedrich Wilhelm Weber (1813 - 1894)

Geh' ich einsam durch die Büsche
Language: German (Deutsch) 
"Geh' ich einsam durch die Büsche,
Sitz' ich einsam in der Zelle,
Unablässig mir zur Seite
Folgt ein treuer Sprechgeselle.

Immer surrt er: "harre, harre!"
Immer raunt er: "bleibe, bleibe;
Alles fügt sich, eh' im höchsten
Sommer steht die Sonnenscheibe!"

Und ich harre, weil ich tiefer
In mein Suchen mich versenke,
Und ich bleibe, -- und ich bleibe,
Hilda, weil ich dein gedenke."
