Drücke mich an deine Brust
Language:
German
Drücke mich an deine Brust
Herz an Herz welch schlagen
Wie wenn Engel voller Lust
Liebesgrüße tragen.
Küsse, meinen durst'gen Mund
Lange, ach, nur lange!
Nichts gleicht auf den Erdenrund
Diesem heil'gen Klange.
Senke deinen Sonnenblick
Tief in meine Seele.
Daß zu meinem Götterglück,
Daß zu meinem Götterglück
Nicht der Himmel fehle.

Meeting
Language:
English
Clasp me close upon thy breast,
Heart on heart fast beating!
Soul to soul in ecstasy
Thrill'd in joyous greeting:
Ah, thy burning lips to mine
Give, o give for ever,
Fear nor fate nor death shall hold
Pow'r that kiss to sever.
Deep within my thirsting soul
Let thy gaze, descending,
Wake to throbbing life at last,
Wake to trembling love at last
Heav'n that knows no ending.
