2. Auf schwanken Zweigen lauschen  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Auf schwanken1 Zweigen lauschen
  Die Vöglein mannigfalt,
Und leise Träume rauschen
  Schlaftrunken durch den Wald.

Die Nachtigall alleine
  Mit süßen Melodein
Ist wach in diesem Haine,
  Dazu das Herze mein.

[Darinne]2 klingen und singen
  Viel süße Grüße, Lieb,
Könnt' ich sie selber bringen,
  Wär's mir noch eins so lieb.

1 [sic] The word "schwankenden" would be grammatically correct (but this might be a misprint for "schlanken"). (Noticed by Bertram Kottmann).
2 Dresel: "Darinnen"

3. Lindes Rauschen in den Wipfeln  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Lindes Rauschen in den Wipfeln,
Vöglein, die ihr fernab fliegt,
Bronnen von den stillen Gipfeln,
Sagt, wo meine Heimat liegt?

Heut im Traum sah ich [sie]1 wieder,
Und von allen Bergen ging
Solches Grüßen zu mir nieder,
Daß ich an zu weinen fing.

Ach! hier auf den fremden Gipfeln:
Menschen, Quellen, Fels und Baum -
[Wirres Rauschen in den Wipfeln]2
Alles ist mir wie ein Traum!

Muntre Vögel in den Wipfeln,
Ihr Gesellen dort im Tal,
Grüßt mir von den fremden Gipfeln
Meine Heimat tausendmal!
