The Ceremonial Wedding – Last night in a dream I saw you, you stretched yourself with a soft laugh!

Wedding Prayers and Meditation

What were women but a game for you, who laid yourself down in so many hours of love. You have never found anything but a piece of yourself, and your search never found its goal. You strove to free yourself in the light and wanted to sink in a cloudy, murky flood. And you just lay helplessly chained in the ranks of the languishing, chained to your blood.

You climbed to pile up your life higher, in other people's souls, when your own strength left you, and shudderingly saw your demon rushing around you. When the day pierced your thin dream. Last night in a dream I saw you stretching yourself with a soft laugh and cooing a thousand things. I tasted you like fruit, as I kissed mountains, valleys and hills, cheeks and breasts with thirsty lips. I was of a flexibility that really had to be admired, Lord, what strength, what breath!

And you, beloved, at the same time, what breath and power, what speed and flexibility of the gazelle. In the morning there was in your arm, only much more perfect, exactly the same sweet things when you woke up.

Ceremonial Wedding

My Lizzie, stop crying, sunshine follows rain. I'll be back with swallow and lilac and probably even earlier. The boy said it. Treu-Lieschen looked after him from the gable roof for a long time until hope returned And held back her tears. The little eyes became clear again, the heart free of all sorrow, she knew: with the lilac her loved one was coming back.

Girls, won't you love me? Look, here I lie in the shadow! Just look at me, you must love me! Roses bloom on the cheeks, fire glows in the veins, pleasure laughs in the mines, love lures in the eyes. And if the lips move, they move jesting and joy. Girls, won't you love me? See, here I lie in the shadow! Girl see how beautiful I love!
