Amalia

Schön wie Engel voll Walhallas Wonne,
Schön vor allen Jünglingen war er,
Himmlisch mild sein Blick, wie Maiensonne,
Rückgestrahlt vom blauen Spiegelmeer.
Seine Küsse - Paradiesisch Fühlen!
Wie zwei Flammen sich ergreifen, wie
Harfentöne in einander spielen
Zu der himmelvollen Harmonie -
Stürzten, flogen, schmolzen Geist in Geist zusammen,
Lippen, Wangen brannten, zitterten
Seele rann in Seele - Erd' und Himmel schwammen
Wie zerronnen um die Liebenden!
Er ist hin - vergebens, ach vergebens
Stöhnet ihm der bange Seufzer nach!
Er ist hin, und alle Lust des Lebens
Rinnet hin in ein verlor'nes Ach!
Input by Richard Morris
