by Frida Schanz (1859 - 1944)

Mädchenbitte
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Laßt mich vorübergehn,
Die Augen niedergeschlagen.
Mir ist ein Leid geschehn!
Nicht fragen! Ach, nur nicht fragen!
 
Mich hat ein Weh erschreckt.
Ich hab' ein Gram zu tragen.
Laßt ihn nur zugedeckt!
Nicht fragen! Ach, nur nicht fragen!
