by Anna (Nuhn) Ritter (1865 - 1921)

Aufbruch
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG FRE
Halb erloschne Kerzen,
Müd' gewiegte Lust,
Unverstandne Schmerzen
In der jungen Brust.

An der Thür ein Grüßen
Und ein zögernd Gehn --
Werd' ich ihn, ihr Sterne,
Morgen wiederseh'n?

Confirmed with Anna Ritter, Gedichte, Neunte Auflage, Stuttgart und Berlin: J.G. Cotta'sche Buchhandlung Nachfolger, 1900, page 9.
