Wenn ich früh in den Garten geh'
In meinem grünen Hut,
Ist mein erster Gedanke,
Was nun mein Liebster tut?

Am Himmel steht kein Stern,
Den ich dem Freund nicht gönnte.
Mein Herz gäb' ich ihm gern,
Wenn ich's heraus tun könnte.

Volksliedje

(Sung text translation for setting by R. Schumann)

See original

Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the German (Deutsch)

Als ik vroeg de tuin in ga,
Zo met mijn groene hoed,
Is mijn eerste gedachte,
Wat nu mijn liefste doet.
 
De sterren, hoog en laag,
Wil ik mijn vriend wel geven,
Mijn hart gaf ik hem graag,
Als 'k zonder voort kon leven.
