Mein
 (Sung text for setting by J. Selmer)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Meine Küsse weiss ein Mund, 
Der zum Kuß gar süß und fein ist; 
Selbstunwissend kühn ward kund 
Mir ein Geist, der nicht gemein ist; 
Offen liegt mir bis zum Grund 
Ein Gemüth, das quellenrein ist; 
Mir am Herzen, kerngesund, 
Schlug ein Herz, das nicht von Stein ist; 
Und all dies in holdem Bund 
Ist ein Weib, das innig mein ist.
