by (Hartwig Karl) Friedrich Eggers (1819 - 1872)

Keine Blumen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
O, flicht mir keine Blumen ins Haar,
  In Wald und Garten gepflückt.
Darf ich dich haben immerdar
  Bin ich ja reich geschmückt.

Kein Veilchenkranz soll um mich sein
  Und duften in unsern Kuß.
Deine lieben Lippen hauchen allein
  Der Wonnen Frühlingsgruß.

Kein Rosenzweig, kein Ehrenpreis
  Dränge sich neidisch vor,
Sagst Du mir, was die Welt nicht weiß,
  Daß Du mich liebst, ins Ohr.
