by Friedrich Rückert (1788 - 1866)

Zeislein, Zeislein
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Zeislein, Zeislein,
Wo ist, wo ist dein Häuslein?
Hoch, hoch im Baum,
Aus Moos und Flaum,
Aus zarten Blütenreislein,
Da ist, da ist mein Häuslein.

Zeislein, Zeislein,
Wer wohnt, wer wohnt im Häuslein?
Mein Schätzlein hold,
Treu, treu wie Gold,
Das allerliebste Zeislein,
Das wohnt, das wohnt im Häuslein.
