Lilie
Language: German (Deutsch)
Lilie, du silberne Freundin der Nacht, dich hat das Mondlicht im Traume erdacht . . . hat dich aus heiligen Strahlen gesponnen jenseits der purpurnen Wonnen die zwischen Rosen und Schmetterling sind . . . Dir sinkt kein Falter im Taumel zu Füssen, dich wagt kaum schüchtern verstohlen zu grüßen der sonst so zärtliche Abendwind!
