by Franz Xaver Seidl (1845 - 1892)

Wenn ich längst von Dir gegangen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wenn ich längst von Dir gegangen
Seh' ich lange noch Dein Bild, 
Deine trauten, lieben Worte 
Klingen nach an jedem Orte 
Und von Deinen weichen Wangen 
Spür' ich ich noch den Hauch so mild.  

Eh' sich dann die Augen senken 
Und der Schlummer mich umgibt, 
Will die Seele noch mit vielen 
Hoffnungen und Träumen spielen, 
Um entzückt noch nachzudenken, 
Wie Dein treues Herz mich liebt.
