Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT ENG FRE
Unter den blühenden Linden --
Weißt du's noch?
Wir konnten das Ende nicht finden,
Erst küßtest du mich,
 ...  dann küßte ich dich --
Ich glaub', lieber Schatz, es war Sünde,
Aber süß, aber süß war es doch!

Der Vater rief durch den Garten --
Weißt du's noch?
Wir schwiegen ... der Vater kann warten!
Erst küßtest du mich,
 ...  dann küßte ich dich:
Ich glaub', lieber Schatz, es war Sünde,
Aber süß, aber süß war es doch.
