2. Winter im Frühling  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Alemannic 
O Lerchle was hilft mi dei lustiger Schlag,
solang' i no Winter im Herze 'rum trag'?
Do drin will's net taue, ist's still wie im Grab,
seitdem i koin Schatz und koin Glaube nich hab'.

O Lerchle, du woisst net, wie traurig ei'm d'Welt,
wenn's Liebste auf Erde ei'm d'Treue net hält.
I möcht' ja gern froh sein, möcht' juble wie du,
könnt' i no vergesse und weine dazu!
