Weit und breit schaut niemand mich an, und wenn sie mich hassen, was liegt mir dran? Nur mein Schatz der soll mich lieben allezeit, soll mich küssen, umarmen und herzen in Ewigkeit. Kein Stern blickt in finsterer Nacht; keine Blum mir strahlt in duftiger Pracht. Deine Augen sind mir Blumen Sternenschein, die mir leuchten so freundlich, die blühen nur mir allein.

Wijd en zijd kijkt niemand mij aan, En als ze mij haten, gaat dat mij aan? Slechts mijn schat, die moet mij minnen wel altijd, Moet mij kussen, omarmen en koest’ren in eeuwigheid. Geen ster straalt in duistere nacht; En mij streelt geen bloem met geurende pracht. Maar jouw ogen zijn mij bloemen, ster meteen, Helder lichtend, zo vriend’lijk, die bloeien voor mij alleen.
