by (Karl) Theodor Körner (1791 - 1813)

Armes Herz, du konntest wähnen?
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Armes Herz, du konntest wähnen?
    Ach, dein Glaube war so süß!
Doch umsonst nur ist dein Sehnen
    Nach der Liebe Paradies.
Froh schlugst du mit tiefem Beben
     Für das heil'ge Wunderland,
Doch vernichtet ward dein Streben,
    Und der schöne Traum verschwand.
