Knabe und Veilchen
 (Sung text for setting by E. d'Albert)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Knabe
Blühe liebes Veilchen,
Das so lieblich roch,
Blühe noch ein Weilchen,
Werde schöner noch.
Weißt du was ich denke,
Liebchen zum Geschenke,
Pflück' ich, Veilchen, dich,
Veilchen, freue dich!

Veilchen
Brich mich stilles Veilchen,
Bin ich Liebste dein,
Und in einem Weilchen
Werd' ich schöner sein!
Weißt du, was ich denke,
Wenn ich duftend schwenke
Meinen Duft um dich:
Knabe, liebe mich!
