Herzeleid
Language: German (Deutsch)
Die Weiden lassen matt die Zweige hangen, Und traurig ziehn die Wasser hin: Sie schaute starr hinab mit bleichen Wangen, Die unglückselge Träumerin. Und ihr entfiel ein Strauss von Immortellen, Er war so schwer von Tränen ja, Und leise warnend lispelten die Wellen: Ophelia, Ophelia!
