Fanchon

Language: German

Gewohnt zu lindern fremde Leiden
Verscheucht'ich vormals machen Gram;
Das Schicksal raubte meine Freuden,
Indem es mir die Mittel nahm.
 
Hinweg mit jenen trüben Bildern!
Thu' ferner, was dein Herz dich hieß,
Fahr' fort den fremden Gram zu mildern,
Ach, die Gewohnheit ist so süß!


Input by Ferdinando Albeggiani
