3. Die Rose im Thal  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Vom Berg zum Thal das Waldhorn klang;
Im blühenden Thal das Mägdlein sang:
Von der Rose, der Rose im Thal!

Der Jäger hörte des Mägdleins Sang;
Sein Waldhorn bei dem Lied verklang:
Von der Rose, der Rose im Thal!

Der Jäger dort oben lauschte so bang,
Als leise [das Lied im Thal]1 verklang:
Von der Rose, der Rose im Thal!

Er zog gar [stille]2 die Berge entlang,
Und immer im Ohr das Lied ihm klang:
Von der Rose, der Rose im Thal!

5. Der Tod, das ist die kühle Nacht  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Der Tod, das ist die kühle Nacht,
Das Leben ist der schwüle Tag.
Es dunkelt schon, mich schläfert,
Der Tag hat mich müd gemacht.

Über mein Bett erhebt sich ein Baum,
Drin singt die junge Nachtigall;
Sie singt von lauter Liebe -
Ich hör es sogar im Traum.
