Wenn schon die liebe ganze Nacht, Der Sterne lichtes Heer Hoch über dir im Wechsel wacht, So hoffen sie noch mehr, Daß auch dein Augenstern sie grüßt. Erwach'! Sie warten drauf, Weil du doch gar so reitzend bist, Du süße Maid, steh auf, Steh auf, steh auf! Und wenn dich alles das nicht weckt, So werde durch den Ton Der Minne zärtlich aufgeneckt! O dann erwachst du schon. Wie oft sie dich ans Fenster trieb, Das weiß sie: d'rum steh auf, Und habe deinen Sänger lieb, Du süße Maid, steh auf, Steh auf, steh auf!

Note: These stanzas were published with the posthumous edition of Schubert's song Ständchen in 1832, when the editor commissioned Friedrich Reil to create two additional stanzas. These stanzas were then carried over by Max Friedlaender into his Schubert Album (Peters Edition) which is still used today by many performers.

Si déjà toute la chère nuit L'armée lumineuse des étoiles Veille sur toi, en retour Elles espèrent encore plus, Qu'un salut de tes yeux étoilés. Éveille-toi ! Elles t'attendent Car tu es tellement ravissante, Toi ma douce amie, lève-toi ! Lève-toi, lève-toi ! Et si tout cela ne suffit pas, Que vienne la musique De l'amour tendrement te taquiner ! Oh alors tu t'éveilleras ! Combien de fois à la fenêtre elle t'appelle, Elle le sait, alors debout ! Et sois gentille avec ton chanteur , Toi ma douce amie, lève-toi ! Lève-toi, lève-toi !
