by Albert Sergel (1876 - 1946)

Wunsch
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Zwei Augen wünsche ich mir,
zwei Augen, die meine Sterne sind
und zu allem Guten mich führen,
wenn meine Wünsche irr und wild
sich auf trüben Wegen verlieren. 

Confirmed with Albert Sergel, Jenseits der Strasse: Gedichte und Stimmungen, Rostock: Volckmann & Wette, 1905. Appears in Hinter Dorn und Heckenrosen, page 9.
