Ein Jüngling liebt ein [Mädchen,]1 Die hat einen andern erwählt; Der andre liebt eine andre, Und hat sich mit dieser vermählt.

9. Nachtlied  [sung text not yet checked]
Nun ist der Tag [versunken]1, [Zur Ruh']2 sind Berg und See, Es glüh'n wie gold'ne Funken Die Stern' in blauer Höh'. Im Schlaf die Felder liegen, Der Wald nur ist erwacht, Und was er dem Lichte verschwiegen, Das singt er leise der Nacht. Und was ich am lauten Tage Dir nimmer sagen kann, Nun möcht ich dir's sagen und klagen, O komm' und hör' mich an!

10. Die gefangenen Sänger  [sung text not yet checked]
Vöglein, einsam in dem Bauer, Herzchen, einsam in der Brust, Beide haben große Trauer Um die süße Frühlingslust. Um das Wandern, um das Fliegen In dem Thal von Zweig zu Zweig, Um das Wiegen, um das Schmiegen An die Liebste warm und weich. Vöglein[,] singe deine Klagen, Bis die kleine Brust zerspringt, Herz, mein Herz, auch du wirst schlagen, Bis dein letzter Ton verklingt.
