by Hermann von Gilm zu Rosenegg (1812 - 1864)
Die Verschwiegenen
Language: German (Deutsch)
Ich habe wohl, es sei hier laut Vor aller Welt verkündigt, Gar vielen heimlich anvertraut, Was du an mir [gesündigt.]1 Ich sagt's dem ganzen Blumenheer, Dem Veilchen sagt' ich's stille, Der Rose laut und lauter der Großäugigen Kamille. Doch hat's dabei noch keine Not, Bleib' munter nur und heiter, Die es gewußt, sind alle tot, Und sagen's nicht mehr weiter.
