Ich stand in dunklen Träumen
Heinrich Heine
I Stood in Dark Dreams
I stood in dark dreams,
And stared at her portrait
And the beloved face
Secretly began to live.
Around her lips drew
A wonderful smile,
And as if from tears of sadness
Her pair of eyes shone.
My tears also flowed
Down from my cheeks,
And oh, I can't believe
That I lost you!
