Translation by Carl Siebel (1836 - 1868)

Mein Hüttlein steht im Tannengrün
 (Sung text for setting by F. Behr)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Dutch (Nederlands) 
Man kann nicht immer fröhlich sein;
Muß manch' mal düster sehen -
Ach, wären alle Wasser Wein,
Wär's um mein Lied geschehen.
Doch müßten deine Lippen
Zuerst vom Weine nippen,
Du holdes Mägdelein!

Mein Hüttlein steht im Tannengrün,
So recht um Wild zu jagen!
Ach, hätt' ich Burgen stolz und kühn,
Ich käm' um Liebe fragen;
Doch kann auf Königsthronen
Nicht treuere Liebe wohnen
Als zwischen Tannengrün!
