by Martha Kropp (1880 - 1968)

Ich singe nicht von dir
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich singe nicht von Dir, ich singe nicht von Dir!
Ich singe nur von Frühlingsglanz
und vollem, reifem Sommerkranz
und singe doch von Dir!

Ich rede nicht von Dir, ich rede nicht von Dir!
Ich plaudre einem Kinde vor vom Prinzen,
der sein Herz verlor
und rede doch von Dir!

Ich träume nur von Dir, ich träume nur von Dir!
Und Märchen, Frühling, Sommerkranz,
Du bist es selbst, Du bist es ganz
und bist im Traum bei mir!
