Komm bald
Language: German (Deutsch)
Warum denn warten von Tag zu Tag? Es blüht im Garten, was blühen mag. Wer kommt und zählt es, was blüht so schön? An Augen fehlt es, es anzuseh'n. Die meinen wandern vom Strauch zum Baum; mir scheint, auch andern wär's wie ein Traum. Und von den Lieben, die mir getreu und mir geblieben, wär'st du dabei!
