by (Friedrich) Emil Rittershaus (1834 - 1897)

Ich weiß nicht, was die Welt noch hätte
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich weiß nicht, was die Welt noch hätte,
Wonach mich ein Verlangen treibt,
Wenn nur Dein Herz mir Zufluchtsstätte,
Mir Deine Brust die Heimat bleibt!

Dein eigen hab' ich mich gegeben
Bis zu dem letzten Atemzug --
Du bist mein Glück, mein Stern, mein Leben!
Ich habe Dich, und hab' genug!
