Morgens send ich dir die Veilchen

Morgens send ich dir die Veilchen,
Die ich früh im Wald gefunden,
Und des Abends bring ich Rosen,
Die ich brach in Dämmrungstunden.

Weißt du, was die hübschen Blumen
Dir Verblümtes sagen möchten?
Treu sein sollst du mir am Tage
Und mich lieben in den Nächten.

by Heinrich Heine (1797-1856) , no title, from Neue Gedichte, in Neuer Frühling, no. 33
