by Alfred Henschke (1890 - 1928), as Jucundus Fröhlich Klabund

Sommerabende, ihr lauen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Sommerabende, ihr lauen,
Bettet mich auf eure Kissen,
Laßt in Fernen, dunkelblauen,
Meiner Träume Wimpel hissen.

Stunden, die am Tag sich placken,
Feiern nächtlich froh verwegen,
Und ich fühl um meinen Nacken
Zärtlich sich zwei Arme legen.

Ist die Seele liebeswund?
Heißren Atem haucht der Flieder,
Und der rote Himmelsmund
Neigt sich üppig zu mir nieder.
