Waldnacht
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Available translation(s): ENG FRE
Ganz still ist's, -- nur ein Rauschen
schwillt durch die Bäume sacht,
als ob sie flüsternd lauschen
dem Schlummerhauch der Nacht.

Und in dem großen Schweigen --
da bin ich ganz allein,
da bin ich ganz mein eigen:
ganz nur Dein.
