by Wilhelm Jensen (1837 - 1911)

Es ist eine Königin der Blumen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Es ist eine Königin der Blumen,
Der huldigt die Blumenschaar;
Das ist eine weiße Rose,
Die blüht nur all' hundert Jahr.

Mir ist, als hätt' ich einmal sie
Im Traume von fern' gesehn --
Die Blumen welken und blühen,
Die Träume kommen und gehn.
