by Ludwig Jacobowski (1868 - 1900)

Auf meinem Grabe, da duftet der Flieder
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Auf meinem Grabe, da duftet der Flieder,
Da singt des Abends die Nachtigall;
Das klingt so süß in die Gruft hernieder
Wie der Liebsten Lachen und Tränenfall.

Im Grab ists gut . . . Doch oft zum Verzagen!
Die Erde ist so wunderschön!
Ich höre des Abends die Nachtigall schlagen
Und möchte vor Sehnsucht und Tränen vergehn . . .
