by Stefan George (1868 - 1933)
An baches ranft
Language: German (Deutsch)
An baches ranft Die einzigen frühen Die hasel blühen. Ein vogel pfeift In kühler au. Ein leuchten streift Erwärmt uns sanft Und zuckt und bleicht. Das feld ist brach · Der baum noch grau... Blumen streut vielleicht Der lenz uns nach.
