by Anton Alexander, Graf von Auersperg (1806 - 1876), as Anastasius Grün

Ihr Name
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich grub in Gold, ich schnitt in manchen Stein,
In manche Rinde deinen Namen ein,
Und daß er sey geborgen für und für 
Schnitt ich [ihn tief, gar tief in's Herze]1 mir.

Die rauhe Rinde thät nicht widersteh'n,
Und Gold und Stein, die liessen's gern geschehn,
Jedoch als ich ihn einschnitt in das Herz,
Da gab es -- Wunden -- Blut -- und Schmerz.
