Die Linde blühte, die Nachtigall sang, Die Sonne lachte mit freundlicher Lust; Da küßtest du mich, und dein Arm mich umschlang, Da preßtest du mich an die schwellende Brust. Die Blätter fielen, der Rabe schrie hohl, Die Sonne grüßte verdrossenen Blicks; Da sagten wir frostig einander: "Lebwohl!" Da knickstest du höflich den höflichsten Knicks.

Ein Jüngling liebt ein [Mädchen,]1 Die hat einen andern erwählt; Der andre liebt eine andre, Und hat sich mit dieser vermählt. Das Mädchen [heiratet]2 aus Ärger Den ersten besten Mann, Der ihr in den Weg gelaufen; Der Jüngling ist übel dran. Es ist eine alte Geschichte, Doch bleibt sie immer neu; Und wem sie [just]3 passieret, Dem bricht das Herz entzwei.

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!

Mein Wagen rollet langsam Durch lustiges Waldesgrün, Durch blumige Taler, die zaubrisch Im Sonnenglanze blühn. Ich sitze und sinne und träume, Und denk' an die Liebste mein; Da grüßen drei Schattengestalten Kopfnickend zum Wagen herein. Sie hüpfen und schneiden Gesichter, So spöttisch und doch so scheu, Und quirlen wie Nebel zusammen, Und kichern und huschen vorbei.
