Ich habe an seiner Brust geruht, In seinen Armen schlief ich ein, Und kreuzt er nimmer meinen Weg -- Er war doch eine Stunde mein! Und wenn ich dieser Stunde Glück Mit meinem Leben zahlen müßt', Ich ginge lächelnd in den Tod -- Er hat mich einmal, einmal geküßt.

I rested upon his bosom, I fell asleep in his arms, And though he may never cross my path again -- He was mine for one hour! And if I would have to pay for This hour of happiness with my life, I would go smiling into death -- For once, once he kissed me.
