Ich habe wenig Lieder In meinem Leben gemacht, Ich singe sie mir und den Mädchen Am Brunnen in der Nacht. Das eine von der Jugend, Die rot unbändig blüht Und nach Streit und Abenteuer In ewiger Sehnsucht glüht. Das andere von den warmen Nächten der Sommerzeit Und von allen schönen Weibern, Um die ich geweint und gefreit. Das dritte sing' ich zur Geige In jeder fremden Stadt, Vom Heimweh des Zigeuners, Der keine Heimat hat.

2d. Con sordino [sung text checked 1 time]
Mir zittern die Saiten Und stimmen die Weise an, Die ich für dich vorzeiten, Die ich für dich in einem Mai Aus lauter Glück ersann. Ich führe den Bogen So scheu und leis gespannt, Wie ich ihn [da]1 gezogen, Da ich [in einer fernen]2 Nacht Vor deinem Fenster stand. Mein Herz ist beklommen Von Liedern andrer Zeit -- Weiß Gott, wie das gekommen, Daß mir aus deiner Liebe ward So eitel Weh und Leid.

4d. An die Schönheit [sung text checked 1 time]
Gib uns deine milde Hand! Von der Mutter Hand gerissen Irren wir in Finsternissen Kinder durch ein fremdes Land. Manchmal wenn es dunkel war, Schenkte eine Heimatweise Deiner Stimme wunderbar Licht und Trost der bangen Reise. Wandrer ohne Ziel und Pfad Irren wir in dunklen Weiten; Wolle du uns gnädig leiten, Bis der große Morgen naht!
