Wenn du ein Herz gefunden
 (Sung text for setting by M. de Rothschild)
 Matches original text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Wenn Du ein Herz gefunden,
Das treu mit Dir es meint,
In gut' und bösen Stunden
Bleib' eng mit ihm vereint.

Hörst Du's an Deinem schlagen,
Nichts Schön'res hörst Du je,
Auf Händen mußt Du's tragen,
Und nimmer thu' ihm weh!

Heut' darfst Du's Dein noch nennen
Was Du in ihm umfaßt,
Willst Du's zu spät erkennen,
Wenn Du's verloren hast?!
