"Abschied" lyrics

"Abschied"

Seinem Geiste bekenne ich mich
Ein Sehnen verzehret sein schönes Gesicht
Das ermattet von Güte beschattet allmächtig ist

Sein Körper bewegt sich nicht
Im Traume sich endlich sein Zwingen vergisst

Den heulenden Jubel erkenne ich nicht
Der mir den heiligen Frieden zerbricht
Sein schweigender Mund, seine schlafende Brust
Harren zärtlich der süßen Lust

Sein Körper bewegt sich nicht
Im Traume sich endlich sein Zwingen vergisst
