by Karl Hermann Schauenburg (1819 - 1876)

Die Knospen schwellen, die Bäche gehn
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Die Knospen schwellen, die Bäche gehn
Im Thale mit Scherzen und Grüßen,
Alle Noth will das kräftige Frühlingswehn
Verscheuchen oder versüßen.

O Stern meiner Nächte, du schimmerst nicht,
Ich irre und schmachte im Dunkeln,
O komme, du mildes, versöhnendes Licht
In die Nacht meiner Seele zu funkeln!
