Es blasen die blauen Husaren

Es blasen die blauen Husaren
und reiten zum Tor hinaus;
da komm' ich, Geliebte, und bringe
dir einen Rosenstrauß.

Das war eine wilde Wirtschaft!
Kriegsvolk und Landesplag'!
Sogar in deinem Herzen
viel Einquartierung lag.

by Heinrich Heine (1797-1856) , no title, from Buch der Lieder, in Die Heimkehr, no. 74
