by Karl Stieler (1842 - 1885)

Laß mich nicht ohne Abschied scheiden
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Laß [mich]1 nicht ohne Abschied scheiden,
Nicht eh' das letzte liebe Wort
Gesprochen wurde von uns beiden;
Noch einmal komm' -- und dann zieh fort!

O hab' den Mut der letzten Stunde!
Viel hab' ich dir zu lieb' getan
Und alles geht mit dir zugrunde -
Schau' mich noch einmal sonnig an!

Und dann zieh' fort ... mit ruhigen Schritten;
Vergeben ist ja alles längst!
O komm'! -- Zwei heiße Augen bitten,
Daß du in Frieden mein gedenkst!
