by Paul Remer (1867 - 1943)

Mädchenlied
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Ach, wenn es nun die Mutter wüßt,
Wie du so wild mich hast geküßt,
Sie würde beten ohne Ende,
Daß Gott der Herr das Unglück wende.

Und wenn das mein Herr Bruder wüßt,
Wie du so wild mich hast geküßt,
Er eilte wohl mit Windesschnelle
Und schlüge dich tot auf der Stelle.

Doch wenn es meine Schwester wüßt,
Wie du so wild mich hast geküßt,
Auch ihr Herz würde in Sehnsucht schlagen
Und Glück und Sünde gerne tragen.
