Veilchen, Rosmarin, Mimosen, Engelsüß und Immergrün, Lilien, [Tausendschön und Rosen]1 Hier in meinem Garten blüh'n. Alles hast du, was zum Kranze Sich die Lieb' auf Erden flicht, Nur das Glück, die Eine Pflanze, Findest du im Garten nicht. Ob sie heimisch ist hienieden, Wo sie wächset, wo sie blüht -- Liebes Herz, gieb dich zufrieden! Hast du dich doch heiß bemüht.

Muurbloem, roosmarijn, mimosa, Maagdenpalm en varenpluim, Lelies, duizendschoon en rozen Bloeien welig in mijn tuin. Alles heb je, wat op aarde Zich voor 'n liefdeskrans aanbiedt, Maar 't geluk, die ene waarde, In je tuin staat die plant niet. Of zij thuishoort hier beneden, Waar zij opgroeit, waar zij wacht --, Lieve hart, wees toch tevreden! Hard genoeg heb je getracht.
