Liebestrunken
Language:
German
Im Garten des Palastes [streift]1 der Wind
Mit weichem Anhauch über Lotosblumen.
Auf der Terrasse, wohlig hingestreckt
In bunte Seidenkissen, ruht der König.
Vor ihm tanzt Si-Schy, funkelnd wie die Sterne,
Schön wie die Schönheit selber, schwebt
Und schwebt und lächelt, wunderbar [zu schauen]2,
Bis [daß]3 ein süßbegehrliches Ermatten
In ihre Glieder sinkt;
Die Hüften wiegen sich nun nicht mehr;
Die kleinen Füße ruhn,
Und schmachtend lehnt sie an den Jaderand,
[Den]4 schimmernden, des königlichen Lagers.
Die holde Si-Schy, schmachtend lehnt sie da.
