Am leuchtenden Sommermorgen

Am leuchtenden Sommermorgen
Geh' ich im Garten herum.
Es flüstern und sprechen die Blumen,
[Ich aber, ich wandle stumm.]1

Es flüstern und sprechen die Blumen,
Und [schaun]2 mitleidig mich an:
Sei [unserer]3 Schwester nicht böse,
Du trauriger blasser Mann.

Poetical idea

In the glimmering summer morning
I pace the garden alone;
The flowers are whisp'ring and speaking,
But silently wander I on.

The flowers are whisp'ring and speaking,
My form with compassion they scan:
"O pray be kind to our sister,
Thou mournful and pale-faced man!"
