by Robert Hamerling (1830 - 1889)

Liebesfrage
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Mädchen, Mädchen, diese wangen,
  Dies Erröthen, dieser Blick,
Ach, entflammt sie das Verlangen,
  Und verkünden sie mir Glück?

Darf ich kühn in's Aug' dir schauen?
  Darf ich voll und unbegrenzt
Diesem zarten Schwure trauen,
  Der in seinem Sterne glänzt?

Prüfe dich in tiefster Seele,
  Eh' dein Auge mich bethört,
Und dein Herz mir ganz verhehle,
  Wenn es mir nur halb gehört.
