Confirmed with Neue Gedichte von Heinrich Heine, Zehnte Auflage, Hamburg, Hoffmann und Campe, 1871, page 151. Below the number at the top of the text are the following words: "(Dieses ist ein wirkliches Volkslied, welches ich am Rheine gehört.)" which can be translated "This is a real folksong that I heard on the Rhein". See also Backer-Grøndahl's song, which uses some of this text.

1 Hiller, Mendelssohn: "bunten"
2 Griffes, Walter, Stanford: "verdorrt"
3 Rubinstein: "vom"
4 Hermann, Hiller: "wusst's"
5 Hiller, Mendelssohn, C. Schumann: "gestorben, verdorben"

by Heinrich Heine (1797 - 1856)
1. Er viel eens rijp in de lentenacht
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) 
Er viel eens rijp in de lentenacht,
Hij viel op de tere bloempjes neer:
Zij zijn geslonken, verdord, ja.
 
Een jongen had eens een meisje lief:
Zij gingen heim' lijk er thuis vandoor;
Van niets wisten vader en moeder.
 
Zij zijn gezworven her en der,
Zij hadden geluk noch een leidende ster,
Zij zijn gestorven, verdord, ja.
