Es wollt die Jungfrau früh aufstehn,
Wollt in des Vaters Garten gehn,
Rot Röslein wollt sie brechen ab,
Davon wollt sie sich machen,
Ein Kränzelein wohl schön.

 ... 

Sie ging im Garten her und hin,
Statt Röslein fand sie Rosmarin:
"So bist du, mein Getreuer hin!
Kein Röslein ist zu finden,
Kein Kränzelein so schön."

Sie gieng im Garten her und hin,
Statt Röslein fand sie Rosmarin:
"Das nimm du, mein Getreuer, hin!
Lieg bei dir unter Linden,
Mein Totenkränzlein fein."

Rozemarijn

(Sung text translation for setting by C. Sinding)

See original

Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the German (Deutsch)

Een maagd wilde vroeg opstaan
om in haar vaders tuin te gaan,
Rode roosjes wilde ze afbreken,
daarvan wilde ze zich
een mooi kransje maken.

 ... 

Ze liep buiten heen en weer,
in plaats van roosjes vond ze rozemarijn:
"dus ben jij, mijn getrouwe, verloren!
Geen roosje is te vinden,
geen prachtig kransje."

Ze liep de tuin op en neer,
in plaats van roosjes brak ze rozemarijn:
"aanvaard het, mijn getrouwe!
Laat bij jou, onder de linden,
mijn mooie doodskransje liggen."
