by Carl Wilhelm Batz (1838 - 1894)

Ach, all mein Sehnen, mein Verlangen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ach, all mein Sehnen, mein Verlangen,
O mein Geliebter, bist nur Du,
Um Dich die Lust - um Dich dies Bangen,
Um Dich dies Treiben ohne Ruh'.

Ich hab' gezweifelt und gelitten,
Da kamest Du und alles schwand,
Kein Streiten war's, es war kein Bitten,
Nur Seele sich zu Seele fand.

Nun wogt mein Busen Dir entgegen
Und all mein Sinnen geht nach Dir,
Ach, Deiner Liebe Zaubersegen
Schwellt wunderbar das Herze mir.

Mit Worten kann ich Dir nicht sagen,
Wie voll mein Herz der Liebe ist,
Gieb Deine Hand und fühl' sein Schlagen,
Ahnst Du dann wohl, was Du mir bist?

Ach, all mein Sehnen, mein Verlangen,
O mein Geliebter, bist nur Du.
Um Dich die Lust - um Dich dies Bangen,
Um Dich dies Treiben ohne Ruh'.
