Ich will die lauten Freuden nicht,
Mein stilles Haus sei meine Welt!
Vom Stern der treu erfüllten Pflicht
Sei einzig nur mein Herz erhellt!

Ich will drauf sinnen Tag und Nacht,
Wie ich dir wohl was Liebes thu'!
Was ist doch all der Feste Pracht
Gen meines Hauses Liebesruh'!

Composition:

    Set to music by Carl Loewe (1796 - 1869), "Brautlied", 1850?
