Frauenchor: Der Abendschlummer Umarmt die Flur, In Liebeskummer Wacht Röslein nur. Sie schaut hinein In die Mondesnacht Und hat voll Sehnen An ihn gedacht. Da klingt sein Lied Heraus vom Wald, dass Frühlingslust Ins Herz ihr schallt. Tenor-solo: Ich weiss ein Röslein prangen Im holden Frühlingsschein, Das möchte so gern ich fragen: Willst du mein Röslein sein? Rose: Schlaf wohl, du lieber Sängersmann! Tenor-solo: Und wenn ich komm'zu fragen, Da schaut mich's freundlich an, Da ist's mit einem Male Um meinen Mut getan. Rose: Schlaf wohl, du lieber Sängersmann! Dein Röslein blüht für dich. Tenor-solo: Sagt dir nicht das Herz im Busen Du Rose voll Frühlingsschein: Rose: Komm' nur recht bald, Herzliebster fein Komm' bald zu ihm und sprich: Tenor-solo: "Ich will nie eines And'ren Denn nur sein Röslein sein." Rose: Ich will dein Röslein werden, Mein Frühling werde du, Komm', weck' mit deinen Küssen Mich aus der Winterruh! Tenor-solo: Sagt dir nicht das Herz im Busen Du Rose voll Frühlingsschein: "Ich will nie eines And'ren Denn nur sein Röslein sein."

Cor de dones: La somnolència del vespre abraça la campanya, amb penes d’amor, només vetlla la petita rosa. Ella esguarda vers la nit de lluna, i plena d’anhel, pensa en ell. El seu cant se sent des del bosc, i així el goig de la primavera li ressona al cor. Tenor solo: Conec una petita rosa que resplendeix a l’esclat encisador de la primavera, de tot cor li voldria preguntar: voldries ser tu la meva petita rosa? La rosa: Dorm bé, tu estimat cantaire! Tenor solo: I quan m’atreveixo a preguntar-li, ella m’esguarda tan afectuosament que de cop i volta perdo el coratge. La rosa: Dorm bé, tu estimat cantaire! La petita rosa floreix per a tu. Tenor solo: No et diu el cor dins del teu pit, tu rosa plena d’esclat de primavera: La rosa: Vine tan sols ben aviat, estimat del meu cor, vine aviat i digues: Tenor solo: “Jo no seré de cap altra car seré només teu, petita rosa.” La rosa: Jo vull ser la teva petita rosa, tu seràs la meva primavera, vine, desperta’m amb les teves besades del repòs de l’hivern! Tenor solo: No et diu el cor dins del teu pit, tu rosa plena d’esclat de primavera: “Jo no seré de cap altra car seré només teu, petita rosa.”
