Schelmenlied
NOTE: the footnotes have been removed from this text; return to general view
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Ich lauscht' dem Fink im grünen Haag,
Das hat mich so bethört.
Ach, hätt' ich auf den lust'gen Schlag
Des Kecken nicht gehört!

Er sang so süß von Lieb' und Glück,
Vom Küssen mir ins Ohr --
Vom Scheiden kam im ganzen Stück
Kein Sterbenswörtchen vor.
