Trost
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): ENG
Der Glückes Fülle mir verliehn Und Hochgesang, Nun auch in Schmerzen preis ich ihn Mein Leben lang. Mir sei ein sichres Himmelspfand, Was ich verlor; Mich führt der Schmerz an starker Hand Zu ihm empor. Wenn ich in Wonnen bang beklagt Den Flug der Zeit, In Schmerzen hat mir hell getagt Unsterblichkeit.
