by Ottilie Kleinschrod, née Stieler (1830 - 1913), as Ottilie Stieler

Klage
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Ich geh' umher; und such' ich Dich
  Auf allen Fluren dieser Erde,
Ich fühl' es doch tiefinnerlich,
  Daß ich Dich nirgend finden werde!

Nun alle Bäume wundermild
  Im Frühlingsglanze blühend stehen,
Mein' ich Dein heißgeliebtes Bild
  In jedem Blütenkelch zu sehen.

Mir sagen klagend Blüt' und Blatt
  In diesen gold'nen Frühlingsstunden:
Du armes Herz, dein Frühling hat
  Für alle Zeit den Tod gefunden.

Confirmed with O. Malybrok-Stieler, Lyrische Gedichte und Übertragungen nach böhmischer Kunst- und Volks-Poesie, Prag: Druck und Verlag von J. Otto, 1887, page 30.
