Der liebste Buhle
 (Sung text for setting by J. Raff)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Der liebste Buhle, den ich han,
der liegt beim Wirt im Keller;
er hat ein hölzern Röcklein an
und heisst der Muskateller.
Er hat mich nächtens trunken g'macht
und freulich heut den ganzen Tag,
so geb' ihm Gott ein gute Nacht! 

Von diesem Buhlen, den ich mein',
will ich dir bald eins bringen,
es sei der allerbeste Wein,
macht lustig mich zu singen,
frischt mir das Blut, gibt freien Mut,
all's durch sein Kraft und Eigenschaft.
Nu grüss dich Gott, mein Rebensaft!
