Der Pfeifer

Steht ein buntes Höfchen
Hoch am Berg im Walde, 
Klingt ein gar so muntres Pfeiflein
Nieder von der Halde! 

Wenn mein alter Vater
Nur noch hören könnte,
Ob er seinem Töchterchen
Nicht den Pfeifer gönnte?

Confirmed with Klänge aus der Fremde von Robert Waldmüller (Eduard Duboc), Leipzig: H. Haessel, 1893, page 22.
