Lust und Leid
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Was ist die Lust?  Was ist die Leid? 
O, laß darnach Dein Fragen; 
Wer könnte Dir denn alles Beid', 
Mit einem Worte sagen!  

Die Lust ist Glück, die Lust ist Lieb', 
Das Leid sind Sehnsuchtsschmerzen, 
Wem nichts von Glück und Liebe blieb, 
Tief blüht sein Leid im Herzen.  

Confirmed with Fürther Tagblatt, zwanzigster Jahrgang, Fürth: Julius Volkhart, 1860.
