by Ludwig Rellstab (1799 - 1860)
In tiefer Ruh liegt um mich her
Language: German (Deutsch)
In tiefer Ruh liegt um mich her Der Waffenbrüder Kreis; Mir ist das Herz so bang [und]1 schwer, Von Sehnsucht mir so heiß. Wie hab' ich oft so süß [geruht]2 An ihrem Busen warm! Wie freundlich schien des Heerdes Gluth, Lag sie in meinem Arm! Hier, wo der [Flammen]3 düstrer Schein Ach nur auf Waffen spielt, Hier fühlt die Brust sich ganz allein, Der Wehmuth Thräne quillt. Herz! Daß der Trost Dich nicht verläßt! [Es]4 ruft noch manche Schlacht. - Bald ruh' ich wohl und schlafe fest, Herzliebste - Gute Nacht!
