3. Zwiegesang  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
  Im Fliederbusch ein Vöglein saß
In der stillen, schönen Maiennacht,
Darunter ein Mägdlein im hohen Gras
In der stillen, schönen Maiennacht.
Sang Mägdlein, hielt das Vöglein Ruh',
Sang Vöglein, hört' das Mägdlein zu,
  Und weithin klang 
  Der Zwiegesang
Das mondbeglänzte Thal entlang.

  Was sang das Vöglein im Gezweig
Durch die stille, schöne Maiennacht?
Was sang doch wohl das Mägdlein [gleich]1
Durch die stille, schöne Maiennacht?
Von Frühlingssonne das Vögelein,
Von Liebeswonne das Mägdelein.
  Wie der Gesang 
  Zum Herzen [drang]2,
[Vergess']3 ich nimmer mein [Lebelang]4!

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Der du [von dem Himmel]1 bist,

5. Vergissmeinnicht  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Blaublümlein spiegelten sich im Bach
Und riefen den eilenden Wellen nach:
Vergißmeinnicht!

Die lachten: Wir müssen zum Meere hin,
Und aus den Augen ist aus dem Sinn,
Vergißmeinnicht!

Blauäuglein hatte ein Mägdelein,
Die strahlten dem Knaben ins Herz hinein:
Vergißmeinnicht!

Der Knabe zog in die Welt hinaus,
Da blühte und welkte manch Blumenstrauß.
Vergißmeinnicht!

Und als er allein auf unendlicher See,
Da grüßten ihn Sterne, da faßt' ihn ein Weh,
Vergißmeinnicht!

Aus rauschenden Wogen sangen herauf
Die Tropfen im Meere aus Bächleins Lauf:
Vergißmeinnicht!
