by Leopold Grünfeld

Deine Augen all' hast du geschlossen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Deine Augen all' hast du geschlossen, 
  Scheue Nacht! 
Da der Morgen purpurn, Dunst umflossen,
  Still erwacht.
Einsam nur durch graue Nebel funkelt,
  Wie das Aug' des Herrn,
Deine Schönheit, die kein Tag verdunkelt,
  Trauter Morgenstern!! --

Du, der Glanz, der Schach im Sterngetümmel,
  Leuchte mir! 
Führe mich, du Freund am Morgenhimmel, 
  Hin zu ihr! 
Leite du Kerem, den Tiefbetrübten,
  -- Sei's auch noch so fern -- 
Führe mich, o führ' mich zur Geliebten 
  Trauter Morgenstern! -- --
