AMARYLLIS, by FRIEDRICH RUCKERT Poet's Biography First Line: Do not bid me welcome, dearest Last Line: Chamber, though thou know'st it not. Alternate Author Name(s): Raimar, Freidmund | ||||||||
Do not bid me welcome, dearest; Do not say to me, "Good-by!" When I come, thy kisses, dearest; When I go, then breathe a sigh. Not when coming thou dost see me, Do I come to thee, my dear; Ever when I'm parted from thee Stays my heart behind me here. Nor when going thou dost see me, Do I leave the sacred spot: Dearest, I remain there in the Chamber, though thou know'st it not. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...AN EVENING SONG by FRIEDRICH RUCKERT AT FORTY YEARS by FRIEDRICH RUCKERT BARBAROSSA by FRIEDRICH RUCKERT BEFORE THE DOORS by FRIEDRICH RUCKERT COSSACK'S WINTER SONG by FRIEDRICH RUCKERT EVENING SONG by FRIEDRICH RUCKERT FROM MY CHILDHOOD DAYS by FRIEDRICH RUCKERT GREEDINESS PUNISHED by FRIEDRICH RUCKERT |
