Kobold
 (Sung text for setting by C. Grädener)
 Matches base text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Einen Kobold, lieb und fein,
sperrt' ich in mein Kämmerlein;
komm' ich abends dann nach Haus',
ruf' ich: Kobold, komm heraus!
Und er springt mir in den Arm,
und ich drück' und herz' ihn warm.
Kobold, Liebster, ach, so sprich
nur ein Wörtlein: Liebst du mich?
Doch der Kobold lacht und spricht:
Küsse doch und frage nicht!
