by August Corrodi (1826 - 1885)

Mein Herz ist eine Blume
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Mein Herz ist eine Blume
auf kühler stiller Au,
in ihrem duftigen Schoosse
perlst du als Himmelsthau!

Mein Herz ist still verschlossen,
ein tiefer dunkler Schacht:
Du hellst als blitzender Demant
Die bange schweigende Nacht.

Mein Herz, ein wilder Strom einst,
rinnet nun sanft und gut,
seitdem du holde Nymphe
bewohnest seine Fluth.

Mein Herz, das ist der Himmel,
und alle Wonnen drinn!
Da thronst du still erhaben,
als Himmelskönigin!
