by (Gustav) Hermann Kletke (1813 - 1886)

Herzliebster
Language: German (Deutsch) 
O Röselein, herzig Röselein,
wer soll dein Herzallerliebster sein?
Das Röslein flüstert: Der ist es nicht,
der leichten Sinnes mich hastig bricht!

O Röselein, herzig Röselein,
wer soll dein Herzallerliebster sein?
Das Röslein flüstert: Der ist es nicht,
der Untreu sinnt und zärtlich spricht!

Nein, wisse, wer will mein Liebster sein,
dem muss ich vertrauen auf ja und nein,
der muss mir treu sein in Sorg' und Not,
der muss mich lieben bis in den Tod!
