Liebe ist an Sommers Statt, Wer ein Lieb im Arme hat, Der kann keck des Winters spotten -- Liebe ist an Sommers Statt. [Wo Zwei stehen treu vereint, Wenn die Sonne trüb auch scheint]1, [Bald]2 wird's warm auch in der Kälte, [Wo Zwei stehen treu vereint]3. Lieb' entstand im Paradies, Daraus hat sie auch gewiß Ein Stück Wärme mitgenommen, Lieb' entstand im Paradies. Treue Liebe ewig brennt, Feuersgluth geht bald zu End', Darum [such’ für’s kalte Leben]4 Ein treu Herz, das ewig brennt.

Love has replaced summer, Those who hold a beloved in their arms Can pertly mock at winter -- Love has replaced summer. [When two are devotedly united, Though the sun shines only dimly]1, [Soon]2 it shall be warm even midst the cold, [When two are devotedly united.]3 Love arose in paradise, From whence with certainty It took a portion of warmth along, Love arose in paradise. True love blazes eternally, The glow of a fire soon ends, Thus, [seek for this cold life]4 A true heart, that blazes eternally.
