by Charles Polydore de Mont (1857 - 1931)

Nu hebbic U al gegheven
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) 
Nu hebbic U al gegheven,
al wat ic gheven mach!
Aen U, mijn Lief, mijn leven,
ghedenck ic nacht ende dach.
 
Wat wilt Ghi mi meer noch vraghen?
En gaf ic U niet ghenoech?
Voor U alleen sal jaghen
mijn herte laet ende vroech.
 
Ic en can niets meer U schinken,
den hemel en is niet mijn...
Mer conde ic sterren doen blinken,
si souden al de uwe sijn!

Nu hebbic U al gegheven,
al wat ic U gheven mach
Ic blijf uw goed, uw leven
tot aen minen stervensdach!
