by Karl Friedrich Müchler (1763 - 1857)

Darf ich zu deinem Preise
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Darf ich zu deinem Preise,
nach treuer Sängerweise,
ein kleines Lied dir weih n?
Darf ich? Du lispelst leise:
 Nein. guter Jüngling, nein .

Darf ich in sanften Klängen
auch nicht dem Echo sagen:
 Mein Herz sei ewig Dein!
Darf ich? Du sprichst mit Zagen:
 Nein, guter Jüngling, nein .

Darf ich auch nicht durch Tränen
bekennen dir mein Sehnen
und meine Schwärmereien?
Darf ich? Du sprichst mit Tränen:
 Nein, guter Jüngling, nein .

So will ich denn verschwiegen
mein glühend  Herz besiegen
und dir gehorsam sein!
O sprich!  Ich kann nicht lügen,
Nein, guter Jüngling, nein.
