by Klaus Groth (1819 - 1899)

Um Ufer rauscht es leise
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Um Ufer rauscht es leise, 
Geruhig liegt der Strand,
Die Wellen ziehen Kreise 
Im weißen Meeressand.

Hinter grünenden Hügeln
Sank die Sonne gemach,
Nun folgt auf leisen Flügeln 
Der milde Abend nach.

Stimmen weit aus der Ferne 
Klingen über die See, --
Und die ewigen Sterne 
Wandeln durch die Höh!
