by Carl (Theodor) Weitbrecht (1847 - 1904)

Nirgend mehr ein Sonnenschein
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Nirgend mehr ein Sonnenschein,
Alles grau und still,
Kaum ein Blatt noch rauscht darein
Das zur Erde will.

Kühle Luft und müde Ruh.
Alles geht so hin,
Langsam, klaglos, immerzu --
Ich so mitten drin.

Freudenarm und leidessatt
Ist mein Herz und still --
Nur zuweilen rauscht ein Blatt,
Das zur Erde will.
