possibly by Joseph Martin Kraus (1756 - 1792)

An mein Mädchen
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Liebe! Liebe! Welche Freuden
Gabst du mit der Holden mir.
Engel müssen mich beneiden,
Ruh' ich in den Armen ihr.
Himmlischer als Maienblüte
Lacht ihr mildes Angesicht.
Ach! Und ihres Herzens Güte
Fasset keine Seele nicht.

Taubenunschuld, Taubentreue,
Deutscher Sinn und deutscher Muth
Blickt aus ihrer Augen Bläue
Und der Liebe sanfte Glut.
Und ihr Wesen all' so fröhlich!
Und ihr Kuss so keusch und rein!
Gott im Himmel! Wie so selig
Kann ein Mensch auf Erden seyn!
