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

Mit Dir
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Durch die Länder, über die Meere
Möcht' ich schlafenden Auges gehn,
Fern auf einer Insel erwachen
Und dich harrend von mir sehn. 

Über uns und uns zur Seite
Keine Fesseln, alles frei,  -- 
An das Herz dir wollt' ich sinken
Und wir wären Eins statt Zwei. 

Confirmed with Gedichte von Felix Dahn, zweiter Band, zweite Sammlung, zweite Abtheilung: Gedichte von Felix und Therese Dahn, Leipzig: Breitkopf und Härtel, 1898, pages 29 - 30.
