Die tausend Grüße, Die wir dir senden, Ostwind dir müsse Keinen entwenden! Zu dir im Schwarme Zieh'n die Gedanken. Könnten die Arme Auch dich umranken! Du in die Lüfte Hauche dein Sehnen! Laß deine Düfte, Küsse mich wähnen. Schwör' es! Ich hör'es: Daß du mir gut bist, Hör' es! Ich schwör' es: Daß du mein Blut bist. Dein war und blieb' ich, Dein bin und bleib' ich Schon vielmal [schrieb']1 ich's, Noch vielmal [schreib']2 ich's.

De duizend groeten Die wij je zenden, Oostenwind moet er Geen van afwenden! Naar jou toe snellen Drommen gedachten. Kon 'k jou omknellen! Ik kan niet wachten! Laat mij bespeuren Jouw innig smachten, Mij door jouw geuren Kussen verwachten. Zweer het, 'k noteer het: Dat jij me liefhebt, Noteer1 het, ik zweer het: Dat jij mijn hart hebt. Trouw was en bleef ik, Trouw ben en blijf ik, Al dikwijls schreef2 ik 't, Nog dikwijls schrijf3 ik 't.
