Wohin ich geh' und schaue,
In Feld und Wald und Tal,
Vom Hügel hinauf die Aue;
Vom Berg aufwärts weit ins Blaue,
Grüß ich dich tausendmal.
In meinem Garten find' ich
Viel Blümchen, schön und fein,
Viel Kränze wohl draus wind' ich
Und tausend Gedanken bind' ich
Und Grüße mit darein.
Dir darf ich keinen reichen,
Du bist zu hoch und schön,
Sie müssen zu bald verbleichen,
Die Liebe ohnegleichen
Bleibt ewig im Herzen stehn.

Wat ik maar wil aanschouwen,
In veld en bos en dal,
Van heuvel naar de landouwen;
De berg op naar 't wijde blauwe,
Ik groet je duizend maal.
In deze tuin hier vind ik
Veel bloemen, mooi en fijn,
Veel kransen daarvan wind ik
En duizend gedachten bind ik
Tot groet- en bloemfestijn.
Jou mag ik er geen reiken,
Jij bent te hoog en mooi;
Hun tijd zal te vlug verstrijken;
Aan liefde zonder gelijke
Blijft eeuwig mijn hart ten prooi.
