Die Götter Griechenlands

Language: German

 Schöne Welt, wo bist du? Kehre wieder,
 Holdes Blütenalter der Natur!
 Ach, nur in dem Feenland der Lieder
 Lebt noch deine fabelhafte Spur.
 Ausgestorben trauert das Gefilde,
 Keine Gottheit zeigt sich meinem Blick.
 Ach, von jenem lebenwarmen Bilde
 Blieb der Schatten nur zurück.
