Frank Wedekind: Ilse

Frank Wedekind

(1864-1918)

Ilse

 

Ich war ein Kind von fünfzehn Jahren,

Ein reines unschuldsvolles Kind,

Als ich zum erstenmal erfahren,

Wie süß der Liebe Freuden sind.

Er nahm mich um den Leib und lachte

Und flüsterte: O welch ein Glück!

Und dabei bog er sachte, sachte

Den Kopf mir auf das Pfühl zurück.

Seit jenem Tag lieb ich sie alle,

Des Lebens schönster Lenz ist mein;

Und wenn ich keinem mehr gefalle,

Dann will ich gern begraben sein.
