by Alfred Steinmann (flourished c1884-1906)

1. Nachtlied  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Dürft' ich mit dir dort oben gehn,
Du träumerischer Mond,
Ich könnte wohl hinübersehn,
Wo die Geliebte wohnt!

Zu glücklich ist die Nachtigall,
Die in dem Lindenbaum
Vor ihrem Haus mit süßem Schall
Durchklinget ihren Traum!

3. Die Kindlein wissen's  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wie's aussieht im [ewigen]1 Freudenhain, 
  Im Himmel, dem hohen, da [oben]2, 
Das wissen die [Kindlein, die kleinen, allein]3, 
  Sie kommen ja grade von [droben]4.

Doch sie können's nicht sagen, unmündig und klein,
  Sie müssen's verschweigen indessen:
Und wachsen heran sie und plaudern sie fein,
  Dann haben sie's leider vergessen.
