Lass mich schlummern, Herzlein, schweige See original
Language: German (Deutsch)
Laß mich schlummern, Herzlein – schweige -- Sey nicht immer so laut, so wach -- Horch, es säuselt durch die Zweige -- Horch, es zwitschert im grünen Dach -- Liebe, Liebe zirpt die Grille -- Liebe zwitschert das Vögelein -- Drum sey still, mein Herzlein, stille -- Sang der Liebe wiege Dich ein --
