by Ida, Baronin von Reinsberg-Düringsfeld (1815 - 1876)

Wenn auf der Erde Schweigen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wenn auf der Erde Schweigen,
Am Himmel Sternenschein,
[Dann]1 will ich an Deinem Herzen
Deine stille Rose sein.

Mein Innigstes, mein Stummstes,
Ich geb' es Dir im Kuß -
Es weiß es meine Seele,
Daß [Dir sie]2 duften muß.

Ich will nicht weiter fragen:
Was ist und was kann sein?
Ich will an Deinem Herzen
Deine stille Rose sein.
