Mit Tausendschönchen, Myrthen, und Vergissmeinnicht
 (Sung text for setting by O. Dresel)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch)

Im Regen und im Sonnenschein
Wachsen des Maien Blümelein.
  Du mit dem Maienangesicht,
Mein tausendschönes Mägdelein,
  Vergiß mein nicht!

Im Regen und im Sonnenschein
Schleichet die Liebe zum Herzen hinein,
Und grünet darin und umranket es dicht.
Du mein tausendschönes Mägdelein,
Vergiss mein nicht!

Im Regen und im Sonnenschein
Soll auch die grüne Myrte gedeih'n,
  Die meine Hand in's Haar dir flicht,
Mein tausendschönes Mägdelein,
  Vergiß mein nicht!

Note for Dresel's setting: the composer may have obtained the added stanza inserted after stanza 1 from an earlier version of the poem before it was revised and published. See footnote 1 below.
