Das Wörtlein Liebe
 (Sung text for setting by M. von Kralik)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Das Wörtlein Liebe, das bleibe fern;
ich will  nur sagen: Ich hab' dich gern.
Zu heiß ist die Sonne, komm, labender Stern,
und sage der Lieben: Ich hab' sie gern.

Das Wort ist nicht eitel, hat guten Kern.
Oft täuschte die Liebe; ich hab' dich gern.
Anders war Siegfried und Dietrich von Bern;
Andere liebt' ich, dich hab' ich gern.
