by Stefan George (1868 - 1933)

Meine weissen ara haben
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Meine weissen ara haben
safrangelbe kronen ·
Hinterm gitter wo sie wohnen
Nicken sie in schlanken ringen
Ohne ruf ohne sang ·
Schlummern lang ·
Breiten niemals ihre schwingen --
Meine weissen ara träumen
Von den fernen dattelbäumen.
