Rose [vom Baierland]1 G'rad im Erblüh'n, Sollst nun am Donaustrand Duften und glüh'n. Sollst in des [Isters]2 Flut Spiegeln Dein Bild, Wangen voll heller Glut, Äuglein so mild. Rose [vom Baierland]1 Trau' dem Bericht, Bessere Gärtnerhand Findest Du nicht. Pflegen zu jeder Stund' Wird sie Dich treu, Nimmer so schönem Bund Folget die Reu'. Nun dich der Liebe Band Dauernd umschließt, Rose [vom]3 Baierland Sei uns gegrüßt.

In the [Danube's]1 waters you are To see your image reflected, Cheeks full of a bright glow, Dear eyes so gentle. Rose from the land of Bavaria, Trust the tidings, You cannot find A better gardener's hand. At all hours [this hand] Shall cherish you faithfully, Rue never follows the forging Of such a beautiful bond. Now that love's alliance Constantly encircles you, Rose from the land of Bavaria, We greet you.
