by Sophie, Gräfin von Waldburg-Syrgenstein, auch von Waldburg-Zeil und Trauchburg, née Gräfin von Waldburg-Zeil-Wurzach (1857 - 1924)

Feierabend
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Auf dem Dachfirst girrt die Taube,
Schwalben fliegen aus und ein,
in des Nussbaums grüner Laube
spielt der Abendsonnenschein.

Spielt darin, und auf den Blättern,
die im Windeshauch sich dreh'n,
sehe ich in gold'nen Lettern
alte, liebe Märchen steh'n.

Alte, halbvergess'ne Sagen,
doch ich kenne ihren Sinn,
träume von vergang'nen Tagen,
schaue lächelnd vor mich hin.
