by Wilhelm Hensel (1794 - 1861)
Morgengruß
Language: German (Deutsch)
Schnell fliehen die Schatten der Nacht, hell blühen die Matten in Pracht, hoch rauschet der Wald in dem Glanze, still lauschet ihm heimlich die Pflanze im blütenverklärenden Tauen, wie selig, den Morgen zu schauen. Was fehlt noch dem goldenen Raum? Komm, Liebchen, erfülle den Traum, mein Lied tönt in wonnigem Rauschen, o komm, wie die Blume zu lauschen, es will dich mein liebendes Sehnen betauen mit seligen Tränen.
