by Franz Ferdinand, Freiherr von Dingelstedt (1814 - 1881)

Mich schau'n mit frommen Augen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Mich schau'n mit frommen Augen
Die jungen Knospen an,
Selbst Sonn' und Sterne winken
Mir mild von ihrer Bahn. 

Mir singt die frühe Lerche,
Mich küßt der Abendwind,
Es spricht zu mir die Welle,
Mir rauscht' die grüne Lind'.

Und nur zwei blaue Augen,
Und nur ein rother Mund,
Die sind mir abgewendet
Und schweigen alle Stund'.
