by Willy (Wilhelm) Lentrodt (1864 - 1914)

Sehnsucht in der Nacht
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Es ist so still. Alles schläft.
Nur ich wache und denke an dich,
träume von dir im Erinnern, in Sehnsucht.
Jasminblüten duften so süß,
so todessüß, wie mir die Liebe ist,
schimmern so weiß, in meinem Zimmer so weiß aus der Nacht,
wie dein Antlitz in Schönheit der Liebe,
im weißen Dufte deiner Glut.
