by (Karl) Theodor Körner (1791 - 1813)

Ich denke dein im Morgenlicht des Maien
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich denke dein im Morgenlicht des Maien,
Im Sonnenglanz;
Ich denke dein, wenn mich die Sterne freuen
Am Himmelskranz.

Ich sorg' um dich, wenn in des Berges Wettern
Der Donner lauscht;
Du schwebst mir vor, wenn in den dunkeln Blättern
Der Zephir rauscht.

Ich höre dich, wenn bei des Abends Gluten
Die Lerche schwirrt;
Ich denke dein, wenn durch des Deiches Fluten
Der Nachen irrt.

Wir sind vereint, uns raubt der Tod vergebens
Der Liebe Lust;
O, laß mich ruhn, du Sonne meines Lebens,
An deiner Brust!
