Ein Myrtenreis
Language:
German
In meinem Herzen regte der Liebe Wunsch sich leis,
da pflanzt ich ein und pflegte ein zartes Myrthenreis.
In Leid und Lust erglühte der Liebe Flamme heiß,
da wuchs empor und blühte mein zartes Myrthenreis.
Und nun mein Herz errungen der Liebe reichsten Preis,
hat sich zum Kranz verschlungen mein zartes Myrthenreis.

A myrtle spray
Language:
English
All softly wakened in my heart the thought of love,
Then planted I, and fostered a tender myrtle spray.
In joy and sorrow glowed the burning flame of love,
Then budded forth and bloomed my tender myrtle spray.
And now my heart the richest prize of love doth find,
My tender myrtle spray for me a wreath hath twined.
