Ich habe wohl, es sei hier laut Vor aller Welt verkündigt, Gar vielen heimlich anvertraut, Was du an mir [gesündigt.]1 Ich sagt's dem ganzen Blumenheer, Dem Veilchen sagt' ich's stille, Der Rose laut und lauter der Großäugigen Kamille. Doch hat's dabei noch keine Not, Bleib' munter nur und heiter, Die es gewußt, sind alle tot, Und sagen's nicht mehr weiter.

Het gaat mij goed, ik wil nu luid Aan allen hier verspreiden, Al velen is ‘t stil uitgeduid, Wat jij mij ooit deed lijden. Ik zei ’t de bloemen keer op keer, ‘t Viooltje heel in ‘t stille, De roos heel luid en luid nog meer De grootogige kamille. Maar toch brengt mij dat niet in nood, ‘k Blijf opgewekt en zeker, Al wie het wist is lang al dood, Niet één is nog een spreker.
