by Therese Dahn, née Freiin Droste zu Hülshoff (1845 - 1929)

Eine Rose nickt an Zweigen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Eine Rose nickt an Zweigen
Sehnend durch die Morgenluft: 
"Sonne, willst du nicht dich zeigen?
Will dein Strahl nicht iedersteigen,
Auszutrinken meinen Duft?

Willst du nicht mit heißem Grüßen 
Zittern über meinem Blüh'n?
Komm -- und soll ich's sterbend büßen -- 
Laß in meinen Schooß den süßen 
Strahlen-Kuß herniederglüh'n."
