by Robert Eduard Prutz (1816 - 1872)

Wol küßt' ich dir vom Rosenmunde
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wol küßt' ich dir vom Rosenmunde
Viel süße Küsse sonder Zahl,
Und dachte nicht der bangen Stunde,
Da ich dich küss' zum letzten Mal.

Nun wir den letzten Kuß uns geben,
Ach, dünkt's dich nicht, du Engel mein,
Als wär's der erste Kuß im Leben?
Und dieser soll der letzte sein?!

About the headline (FAQ)

Confirmed with Robert Prutz, Buch der Liebe, Dritte Auflage, Leipzig: Verlag von Ernst Keil, 1874, page 50.

Note: The word "Wol" at the beginning of the first stanza is usually modernized to "Wohl."
