Sternelein,
Hell und rein,
Schaust zu mir in's Kämmerlein.
Wie ein fein
Äugelein,
Thust mich freundlich grüssen.
Sag mir, liebes Sternelein,
Schaust wohl auch in's Kämmerlein
Meiner Braut, der süssen.
Sternelein,
Hell und rein,
Lass' sie zärtlich grüssen!

Little star
Language: English  after the German (Deutsch)
Little star,
Bright and pure,
You gaze into my little chamber.
Like a fine
Little eye
You greet me in a friendly manner.
Tell me, dear little star,
Do you also gaze into the little chamber
Of my betrothed, the sweet one.
Little star,
Bright and pure,
Give her a tender greeting!
