Euch Lüften, die mein Klagen, Elsa's aria from Lohengrin

Euch Lüften, die mein Klagen
so traurig oft erfüllt,
euch muß ich dankend sagen,
wie sich mein Glück enthüllt! 
Durch euch kam er gezogen,
ihr lächeltet der Fahrt,
auf wilden Meereswogen
habt ihr ihn treu bewahrt. 
Zu trocknen meine Zähren
hab' ich euch oft gemüht;
wollt Kühlung nur gewähren
der Wang', in Lieb' erglüht! 
Wollt Kühlung nur gewähren
der Wang', in Lieb' erglüht!
In Liebe!
