Minnelied
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Auf einem großen, grünen Platz,
da wohnet mein herzliebster Schatz.

Da steht ein großer, grüner Baum,
der ragt bis in des Himmels Raum.

Und seine Wurzeln erdenwärts
schlingt er um meines Liebsten Herz;

d'raus sprießt hervor rot Röselein,
das spricht: Mein Schatz, ich harre dein.

Die Nachtigall so liebesfromm
singt immerfort: Herzliebster, komm!

Und leise rauscht der grüne Baum:
O komm, ich hab' für dich noch Raum,

denn hier bei deinem lieben Schatz
ist doch für dich der beste Platz!
