[Es führen über die Erde]1 Straßen und Wege viel, Aber alle haben Dasselbe Ziel. Du kannst reiten und fahren Zu zweien und zu drein, Den letzten Schritt mußt du Gehen allein. Drum ist kein Wissen [Noch]2 Können so gut, Als daß man alles Schwere Alleine tut.

2. Wanderschaft  [sung text checked 1 time]
Im Walde blüht der Seidelbast, Im [Graben]1 liegt [noch]2 Schnee; Das du mir heut' geschrieben hast, Das Brieflein tat mir weh. [Jetzt]3 schneid' ich einen Stab im Holz; Ich weiß ein ander Land, Da sind die [Jungfern]4 nicht so stolz [Dem Lieben]5 abgewandt. Im Walde blüht der Seidelbast, Kein Brieflein tut mir weh, Und das du mir geschrieben hast, Schwimmt draußen auf dem See, Schwimmt draußen auf dem Bodensee, Ja draußen auf dem See.
