by Paul Heyse (1830 - 1914)
Hat dich die Liebe berührt
Language: German (Deutsch)
Hat dich die Liebe berührt, Still unterm lärmenden Volke Gehst du in goldner Wolke, Sicher [vom Gotte]1 geführt. Nur wie verloren, umher Lässest die Blicke du wandern, Gönnst ihre Freuden den Andern, Trägst nur nach einem Begehr. Scheu in dich selber verzückt, Möchtest du [hehlen]2 vergebens, Daß nun die Krone des Lebens Strahlend die Stirn dir schmückt.
