by Carl Hennig (1819 - 1873), "Lieb Liebchen, leg's Händchen aufs Herze ", op. 83 (Vier Lieder) no. 2
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Lieb' Liebchen, leg's Händchen [aufs]1 Herze mein; -
Ach, hörst du, wie's [pochet]2 im Kämmerlein?
Da hauset ein Zimmermann schlimm und arg,
Der zimmert mir einen Totensarg.

[Es]3 hämmert und klopfet bei Tag und bei Nacht;
[Es]3 hat mich schon längst um den Schlaf gebracht.
Ach! sputet Euch, Meister Zimmermann,
Damit ich [balde]4 schlafen kann.

1. Lief liefje, voel 't hart eens
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) 
Lief liefje, voel 't hart eens, dit kamertje;
Ach, hoor je hoe 't klopt daar, het hamertje?
Daar huist, ja, een timmerman, vol chagrijn;
Die timmert mij daar een dodenschrijn.
 
Gehamer, geklop klinkt daar steeds, dag en nacht;
'k Heb slapeloos nachtenlang doorgebracht.
Ach, haast je toch, meester timmerman,
Zodat ik spoedig slapen kan.
