by Emanuel von Geibel (1815 - 1884)

Nun komm, mein süßes Weib, und rasten...
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Nun komm, mein süßes Weib, und rasten wir,
Solang' es dämmert noch im Erker hier,
Und horchen, wie im Winde reingestimmt
Das Spätgeläut den See herüberschwimmt;
Ja, Feierabend ist, und selig müd
Geschlossen Auges lehn' ich in die Pfühle,
Und wie ich deine Wang' an meiner fühle,
Glänzt mir auch das noch leise durchs Gemüt,
Wie wunderlieb mich heut zur guten Nacht
Dein Kind aus blauen Augen angelacht.
