by Rudolf Graf Hoyos von Sprinzenstein, Freiherr zu Stixenstein (1821 - 1896)

Ein leises Wort aus deinem Munde
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ein leises Wort aus deinem Munde
ist mir [volltönende]1 Musik;
von allen Himmeln [gibt mir]2 Kunde
aus deinem Aug' ein holder Blick.

Unendlich mehr sagt mir dein Schweigen
als alle Stimmen dieser Welt,
doch deines Hauptes schmerzlich Neigen
umnachtend auf mein Leben fällt.

O lass mich deine Stimme hören,
mich sehen den geliebten Blick!
Du kannst allein das Leid beschwören
und segnend wenden mein Geschick.
