Friedlich bekämpfen
Language: German (Deutsch)
Friedlich bekämpfen Nacht sich und Tag. Wie das zu dämpfen, Wie das zu lösen vermag! Der mich bedrückte, Schläfst du schon, Schmerz? Was mich beglückte Sage, was war's doch, mein Herz? Freude wie Kummer, Fühl' ich, zerrann, Aber den Schlummer Führten sie leise heran. Und im Entschweben, Immer empor, Kommt mir das Leben Ganz, wie ein Schlummerlied vor.
