Unter'm Machandelbaum
   Da ist ein Platz, --
Susala -- Dusala --
   Da sitzt mein Schatz.
Sitzt auf dem grünen Gras, 
   Sitzt auf dem grünen Klee.
Hast ja die Augen naß?
   Bist ja wie Milch und Schnee?
Susala -- Dusala --
    Wo tut's denn weh?
Kommst du so spät zurück?
   Nun ist's zu spät fürs Glück.
Kenne dich gar nicht mehr.
   Mir ist das Herz verquer,
Susala -- Dusala --
   Wollt', tot ich wär'!
Schwarz ist das Grabeloch,
   Leb' doch ein Weilchen noch;
Wart' noch bis Sankt Kathrein,
   Da will ich um dich frei'n.
Wart' noch bis Sankt Martein,
   Da soll die Hochzeit sein!
Susala -- Dusala --
   Gib dich darein!
