by Otto Julius Bierbaum (1865 - 1910)

Ein Bett, ein Stuhl, ein Tisch, ein...
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ein Bett, ein Stuhl, ein Tisch, ein Schrank,
Und mittendrin ein Mädel schlank,
Meine lustige, liebe [Jeanette]1.
Braune Augen hat sie, wunderbar,
In wilden Ringeln hellbraunes Haar,
Kirschrother Lippen ein schwellend Paar, --
  [Jeanette! Jeanette!]2

Am Fensterbret ein Epheu steht,
Durchs grüne Geranke die Liebe späht,
Meine lustige, liebe [Jeanette]1.
[Thüre]3 auf: da liegt mir am [Hals]4 das Kind.
[Alleine]5 wir beiden, es singt der Wind
Das Lied von Zweien, die selig sind, --
  [Jeanette]1! [Jeanette]1!
