by Ferdinand von Saar (1833 - 1906)

Herbst
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Der du die Wälder färbst, 
Sonniger, milder Herbst, 
Schöner als Rosenblüh'n 
Dünkt mir dein sanftes Glüh'n. 

Nimmermehr Sturm und Drang, 
Nimmermehr Sehnsuchtsklang; 
Leise nur athmest du 
Tiefer Erfüllung Ruh'. 

Aber vernehmbar auch 
Klaget ein scheuer Hauch, 
Der durch die Blätter weht: 
Daß es zu Ende geht.
