Bitte, bitte!

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Bitte, bitte! einen Blick
aus den holden blauen Augen;
gönne mir das süße Glück
Himmelshoffnung einzusaugen!

Bitte, bitte! einen Gruß
aus dem schöngeformten Munde;
gönne mir den Hochgenuß
einer froh durchlebten Stunde!

Bitte, bitte! einen Schwur
ew'ger Liebe ew'ger Treue;
in dem Tempel der Natur
kröne unsre Bundesweihe!

Bitte, bitte! reiche mir
einen Kuß von deinen Lippen,
neige Dich herab zu mir,
laß mich Himmelsbalsam nippen!

Composition:

    Set to music by Louis [Ludwig] Spohr (1784 - 1859), "Bitte, bitte!", op. 94 (Sechs deutsche Lieder) no. 2 (1835-6)
