by (Gottfried Bernhard) Adelbert (or Adalbert) Natorp (1826 - 1891)

In meinen Armen wieg' ich dich
 (Sung text for setting by R. Franz)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
In meinen Armen wieg' ich dich,
An meinem Herzen inniglich,
Mit deinen Locken spiele ich,
In deinem Auge seh' ich mich.

Und wenn die Leute fragen mich:
Was sitzest du so still für dich?
In meinen Armen wieg' ich dich,
An meinem Herzen inniglich.

Und fragen sie: was weinest du?,
Ich lächelnd ihnen Antwort thu':
Mit deinen Locken spiele ich,
In deinem Auge seh' ich mich.
Modernized spelling would change "thu' " to "tu' "
