Lenzäugige Maid
Language: German (Deutsch)
Du wunderhold süße, lenzäugige Maid, dir hab' ich mein Leben, mein Lieben geweiht; denn du hast begriffen mein Lied und mein Leid, drum lieb' ich dich ewig, lenzäugige Maid. Ach, du nur alleine, lenzäugige Maid, bist Lieben und Leben und Seligkeit; drum neige dich hold mir, smaragdene Fee, und lind're mein Leiden und lind're mein Weh'!
