In Hamburg I Loved a Strange Girl

Carl Halling



In Hamburg I loved 

A strange girl,

She put my whole being

In a whirl,

 

She spurned everybody 

But me,

I made her happy,

In Hamburg.

 

But if she had

Spurned me,

I'd have looked her in the eye,

And run away,

 

And in my room,

I would have cried,

I might even have died,

In Hamburg.

  • Comment from author about the poem: "In Hamburg I Loved a Strange Girl "was recently quite faithfully adapted from a song written when I was ca. 18 years old. Notwithstanding the undoubted fact of a sea voyage which took place when I was 18 years old, and which included several days in Hamburg, it's entirely fictitious.
