Liten jungfru, liten skatt,
gångar uti dansen,
binder uti sommarnatt
granna önskekransen,
binder för sitt hjärtas vän,
binder, binder, binder än
granna önskekransen.
 
Liten jungfru, liten skatt,
plockar örter många,
sover uti sommarnatt,
drömmer hon kan fånga
riddaren av hjärtats ros,
riddaren, som for sin kos,
honom kan hon fånga.
 
Liten jungfru, liten skatt,
snyftar tyst och gråter,
vet ej att i denna natt
riddarn vänder åter,
riddaren, som for sin kos,
riddaren av hjärtats ros,
vänder, vänder åter.
