Hugo von Hofmannsthal: Mädchenlied

POEARCHFDM02

Hugo von Hofmannsthal
(1874-1929)

Mädchenlied

»Was rinnen dir die Tränen,
Die Tränen stumm und heiß,
Durch deine feinen Finger,
Die Finger fein und weiß?«
Mein Schleier ist zerrissen
Und wehet doch kein Wind
Und bin doch nirgends gangen
Niemals, wo Dornen sind …
Die Glocken haben heute
So sonderbaren Klang,
Gott weiß, warum ich weine,
Mir ist zum Sterben bang.
