Heinrich Heine - The Palm And The PineHeinrich Heine - The Palm And The Pine
Work rating: Low


Beneath an Indian palm a girl   Of other blood reposes; Her cheek is clear and pale as pearl   Amid that wild of roses. Beside a northern pine a boy   Is leaning fancy-bound. Nor listens where with noisy joy   Awaits the impatient hound. Cool grows the sick and feverish calm,   Relaxed the frosty twine.-- The pine-tree dreameth of the palm,   The palm-tree of the pine. As soon shall nature interlace   Those dimly-visioned boughs, As these young lovers face to face   Renew their early vows.
