Nein, Geliebter, setze dich mir so nahe nicht! Starre nicht so brünstiglich mir ins Angesicht! Wie es auch im Busen brennt, dämpfe deinen Trieb, daß es nicht die Welt erkennt, wie wir uns so lieb.

Neen, geliefde, neen, zit niet Bij mij neer zo dicht! En staar niet zo expliciet Mij in 't aangezicht! Hoe ook vuur je hart verteert, Houd je kalm in schijn, Dat de wereld niet bespeurt, Hoe verliefd wij zijn.
