3. Die junge Rose [sung text not yet checked]
Language: German (Deutsch)
Dir geb' ich die Rose voll thauiger Pracht, Geliebt vom melodischen Sänger der Nacht, Der oft ihr Erröthen [im]1 Mondschein umschwebt, Vor dessen Gesang sie in Wonne gebebt. O nimm Du die blühende Rose vom Strauch, Verläng're ihr Dasein mit lieblichem Hauch! Umtönt ihre Blüte Dein holder Gesang So wähnt sie, noch sei es der Nachtigall Klang.
