by Stefan George (1868 - 1933)

Mit frohem grauen haben wir im späten
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Mit frohem grauen haben wir im späten
Mondabend oft denselben weg begonnen
Als ob von feuchten blüten ganz beronnen
Wir in den alten wald der sage träten.

Du führtest mich zu den verwunschnen talen
Von nackter helle und von blassen düften
Und zeigtest mir von weitem wo aus grüften
Die trübe liebe wächst im reif der qualen.
