by (Friedrich) Julius Hammer (1810 - 1862)

Wenn ich mein Auge weide
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wenn ich mein Auge weide,
Rose, an deinem Schein,
Die mir im Thaugeschmeide 
Lächelt so süß und rein,
Ist mir, als stiege leise
Ein Singen aus dir hervor:
Wunderbar eigne Weise 
Klingt zu dem lauschenden Ohr.

Horch, wie es rufet und rauschet! 
Sage, wohin, wohin? 
Hast du die Welt mir vertauschet,
Blühende Zauberin?
Ringsum sinkt sie in Wildniß,
Aber in seliger Ruh' 
Lächelt der Liebsten Bildniß 
Rosig verklärt mir zu!
