O Sonne, o Sonne, du ziehest Wol über die Berge und Höh'n, So grüße mein herziges Liebchen Ich hab's heut' nimmer geseh'n. O Sonne, dort drüben am Hause Zwei Weiden, zwei Weiden wehn; An ihrem offenen Fenster Zwei Lorbeerrosen steh'n. O scheidende Sonne, du ziehest Wol über die Berge und Höh'n, So grüße mein herziges Liebchen, Die dunkeln Augen mir schön.
