The two poems by Uhland and the one by Freiligrath depict three different forms of love. Uhland's "" (exalted love) is saintly or religious love: the "martyr" renounces worldly love and "heaven has opened its gates". The second song "" (blessed death) is often known by its first line ("", "I had died"), and evokes erotic love; ("I was dead from love's bliss; I lay buried in her arms; I was wakened by her kisses; I saw heaven in her eyes"). Freiligrath's poem for the third nocturne is about unconditional mature love ("Love as long as you can!", "O lieb, so lang du lieben kannst").
