by Adolf Grimminger (1827 - 1903)

Im Herbscht
Language: Swabian (Schwäbisch) 
D'Blümle schläfert's, d'Blätter fälle,  
Nemme jauchzt's in Busch und Baum, 
Gflüchtet hänt sich d'Nachtigalle, 
Z'End ischt 's Lied vom schöne Traum.  

Ach und doch  --  was ischt solch Scheide, 
Des net d'Lied vom Lebe trennt, 
Gege gschtorbne Herzensfreude, 
Die koin Mai meh z' hoffe hänt?

Confirmed with Adolf Grimminger, Mei Derholm, Stuttgart: J. G. Cotta'sche Buchhandlung, 1888, page 49.
