AS a butterfly renew'dA
-
When in life I breath'd my lastB
-
To the spots my flight I wingC
-
Scenes of heav'nly rapture pastB
-
Over meadows to the springC
Round the hill and through the woodD
-
Soon a tender pair I spyE
-
And I look down from my seatF
-
On the beauteous maiden's headG
-
When embodied there I meetF
-
All I lost as soon as deadG
Happy as before am IE
-
Him she clasps with silent smileH
-
And his mouth the hour improvesI
-
Sent by kindly DeitiesJ
-
First from breast to mouth it rovesJ
-
Then from mouth to hands it fliesJ
And I round him sport the whileH
-
And she sees me hov'ring nearK
-
Trembling at her lovers raptureL
-
Up she springs I fly awayM
-
Dearest let's the insect captureL
-
Come I long to make my preyM
Yonder pretty little dearK

Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
