Ein Stand, der ohn Gefahr ist,
ein guter Ruhm, der wahr ist,
ein Capital, das baar ist,
ein Essen, das fein gar ist,
ein Trunck, der frisch und klar ist,
ein Weib, das guter Haar ist,
und unter zwanzig jahr ist,
wenn dies zusammen dar ist,
das heißt ein Glück, das rar ist.

Composition:

Georg Philipp Telemann
