Es liegt der heiße Sommer

Es liegt der heiße Sommer
auf deinen Wängelein;
es liegt der Winter, der kalte,
in deinem Herzchen klein.

Das wird sich bei dir ändern,
du Vielgeliebte mein!
Der Winter wird auf den Wangen,
der Sommer im Herzen sein.

by Heinrich Heine (1797-1856) , no title, from Buch der Lieder, in Lyrisches Intermezzo, no. 48
