Ach, ich denke
 (Sung text for setting by R. Franz)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
  Ach, ich denke und versenke
In ihr Bild mich Tag und Nacht!
Und kein Grüßen
Von der Süßen, --
O ich hätt' es nicht gedacht!

  Ach, ich zage 
Und ich klage
Bis mein Aug' voll Thränen steht.
Ach, ich lausche
Ob es rausche,
wenngleich sie mir ferne geht.

 ... 

  So versäumst Du,
So verträumst Du
Was mir Glück und Frieden giebt?
Fühlst im Herzen
Keine Schmerzen,
Hast doch einst so heiss geliebt!
