by Johann Georg Jacobi (1740 - 1814)
Von dir, o Liebe, nehm ich an
Language: German (Deutsch)
Von dir, o Liebe, nehm ich an Den Kelch der bittern Leiden; Nur einen Tropfen dann und wann, Nur Einen deiner Freuden! So wird dein Kelch, o Liebe, mir Wie Feierbecher glänzen; [Auch]1 unter Tränen will ich [dir]2 Mit Rosen ihn bekränzen.
