1. Lehn deine Wang' an meine Wang'  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Lehn deine Wang' an meine Wang',
Dann fliessen die Tränen zusammen;
Und an mein Herz drück fest dein Herz,
Dann schlagen zusammen die Flammen!

Und wenn in die große Flamme fliesst
Der Strom von [unsern]1 Tränen,
Und wenn [dich mein Arm]2 gewaltig umschließt -
Sterb' ich vor Liebessehnen!

1. Leg nu je wang
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) 
Vlij nu je wang aan die van mij,
Dan vloeien de tranen tezamen;
En tegen1 mijn hart druk vast jouw hart,
Dan slaan uit hen samen de vlammen!
 
En als dan in 't grote vlamgeweld
De tranen samenvloeien,
En als dan mijn arm jou krachtig omknelt --
Sterf ik van liefdesgloeien!

2. Wenn ich in deine Augen seh'  [sung text not yet checked]
by Benno Schönberger (1863 - 1930), "Wenn ich in deine Augen seh'", op. 6 (Six songs) no. 4, published 1890, also set in English
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wenn ich in deine Augen [seh']1,
So schwindet [all' mein Leid]2 und Weh; 
Doch wenn ich küße deinen Mund,
So werd' ich ganz und gar gesund.

Wenn ich mich lehn' an deine Brust,
Kommt's über mich wie Himmelslust;
Doch wenn du sprichst: ich liebe dich!
[So]3 muß ich weinen bitterlich.

2. Als ik je lieve ogen zie
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) 
 Als ik je lieve ogen zie
 Hoor ik op slag een symfonie
 En als je mondje opengaat 
 Heb ik een aria paraat.

 Steeds als ik 's avonds nog wat blijf
 Is 't net of ik ons lijflied schrijf
 Pas als ik vraag: zeg "Ja, ik wil!"
 Dan valt mijn muze pijnlijk stil.

3. Ich will meine Seele tauchen  [sung text not yet checked]
by Benno Schönberger (1863 - 1930), "Ich will meine Seele tauchen", op. 6 (Six songs) no. 6, published 1890, also set in English
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich will meine Seele tauchen
In den Kelch der Lilie hinein;

Ein Lied von der Liebsten mein.

Das Lied soll [schauern]2 und beben
Wie der Kuß von ihrem Mund,
Den sie mir einst gegeben
In wunderbar süßer Stund'.

3. Ik dompel dit liefdesliedje
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) 
 Ik dompel dit liefdesliedje
 In een bad dat vol is gegooid
 Met witte vergeetmijnietjes
 Tot lied dat haar hart ontdooit
 Als ik dan zing zal het klinken
 Als de kus die zij me gaf
 Of zou mijn lied verdrinken
 In huilbuien achteraf?
