Welle, gleitest singend fort, Blatt und Blüthe schwimmt mit dir; Bringe meiner Augenlust, Einen süssen Gruss von mir. Lüftchen säuseln um den Hain, Küsset Blum' und Schäferin; Geh zu schönem Liebchen mein, Trag ihm meine Seufzer hin! Rind' in die ich Worte schnitt, Bessres weiht dir Dankes Pflicht; Liebchens Auge sollst du sehn; Flüsternd ihm: "Vergiss mein nicht!"
