by Emanuel von Geibel (1815 - 1884)

Wenn es rothe Rosen schneit
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wenn es rothe Rosen schneit,
Wenn es Liebe regnet,
Oeffne, Herz, dem Glück dich weit,
Das so hold dich segnet.

Halt' im Liede fest den Glanz
Solcher Freudentage,
Doch ins Heut versunken ganz
Nicht nach Morgen frage.

Weißt du doch, der Rosenzeit
Folgt die Sonnenwende,
Und die Liebe lohnt mit Leid
Immerdar am Ende.
