by Ricarda Octavia Huch (1864 - 1947)

Weh, daß ich sang das Lied von deiner...
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  FRE
Weh, daß ich sang das Lied von deiner Schöne
Am offnen Fenster in die Sommernacht!
Es horchten Erd' und Himmel auf die Töne
Und haben das Verborgne kund gemacht.
Nun lieben dich Levkojen und Kamillen,
Die Sterne stürzen sich vom Himmelszelt,
Das Meer fängt an zu glühn um deinetwillen --
O Rieseneifersucht auf alle Welt!
