Chramer, gip die varwe mir
diu min wengel roete,
da mit ich die jungen man
an ir dank der minnenliebe noete.

Seht mich an,
jungen man!l
Lat mich iu gevallen!

Minnet, tugentliche man,
minnecliche frouwen!
minne tuot iu hoch gemuot
unde lat iuch in hohen
eren schouwen.

Seht mich an,
jungen man!
Lat mich iu gevallen!

Wol dir werlt, das du bist
also freudenriche!
Ich will dir sin undertan
durch din liebe immer sicherliche.

Seht mich an,
jungen man!
Lat mich iu gevallen!
