Campo santo di Staglieno

Language: German

O Mädchen, das dem Lamme
Das zarte Fellchen kraut,
Dem beides, Licht und Flamme,
Aus beiden Augen schaut,
Du lieblich Ding zum Scherzen,
Du Liebling, weit und nah,
So fromm, so mild von Herzen.
Amorosissima.
 
Was riß so früh die Kette,
Was hat dein Herz betrübt,
Und liebtest du, wer hätte
Dich nicht genug geliebt?
Du schweigst, doch sind die Tränen
Den milden Augen nah,
Du schweigst und starbst vor Sehnen,
Amorosissima?
