by Alfred Henschke (1890 - 1928), as Jucundus Fröhlich Klabund

Du gabst mir immer wieder
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG FRE
"Du gabst mir immer wieder
Dein Herz und deine Lieder,
Ich nahm sie sorglos hin.
Nun muß ich dich betrüben:
Ich darf dich nicht mehr lieben,
Weil ich nicht dein mehr bin."

"Und liebst du einen andern,
Will ich ins Weite wandern,
Mir wird so enge hier.
Wie schmerzlich blüht der Flieder!
Mein Herz und meine Lieder,
Ich lasse sie bei dir."
