Deingedenken
Language: German (Deutsch)
Our translations: ENG
Was soll ich denn ansehen Und deiner nicht gedenken? Ja, Ort und Stunde weiß ich nicht, Die leis nicht deinen Namen spricht. Bei schöner Morgenfrühe, Wie muss ich dein gedenken! Ob Tag, ob Abend glühe, Doch muss ich dein gedenken! Und fährt die Nacht her, ruhevoll, Weiß nicht, was ich sonst denken soll.
