from Volkslieder (Folksongs) , as Folk songs

Drei Laub auf einer Linde
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Drei Laub auf einer Linden
Blühen also wohl, ja wohl;
Sie tut viel tausend Sprünge,
Ihr Herz ist freudenvoll.
Ich gönn's dem Maidlein wohl.

Sie hat den langen Winter
Stets am Stuhl gewebt, gewebt,
Für fremde Leut' das Linnen
Gewirket und gestrebt,
Für sich nur halb gelebt.

Ihr Schatz war in der Fremde,
Wieder bin ich hier, ja hier,
Der Tanz hebt sich behende,
Komm[,] meines Herzens Zier
Und tanz nach Lust mit mir!
