by (Johann) Heinrich Vogeler (1872 - 1942)

Wenn der Mond in hellen Silbernächten
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wenn der Mond in hellen Silbernächten
Steigt leise in Dein Kämmerlein,
Wenn er spielt mit Deinen goldnen Flechten,
Schaut in die Augen Dir hinein,
Wenn er küsst Dein weiches Seidenhaar,
Dann bringt er Dir meine Grüsse dar.
