Adelbert von Chamisso - Du Ring an meinem Finger lyrics

Thou ring on my finger, my little golden ring, I press thee piously upon my lips piously upon my heart. I had dreamt it, the tranquil, lovely dream of childhood, I found myself alone and lost in barren, infinite space. Thou ring on my finger, thou hast taught me for the first time, hast opened my gaze unto the endless, deep value of life. I want to serve him, live for him, belong to him entire, Give myself and find myself transfigured in his radiance. Thou ring on my finger, my little golden ring, I press thee piously upon lips, piously upon my heart.
