Am Bach viel kleine Blumen stehn, Aus hellen blauen Augen sehn; Der Bach der ist des Müllers Freund, Und hellblau Liebchens Auge scheint, Drum sind es meine Blumen. Dicht unter ihrem Fensterlein Da [pflanz' ich meine]1 Blumen ein, Da ruft ihr zu, wenn Alles schweigt, Wenn sich ihr Haupt zum Schlummer neigt, Ihr wißt ja, was ich meine. Und wenn sie thät die Äuglein zu, Und schläft in süßer, süßer Ruh', Dann lispelt als ein Traumgesicht Ihr zu: Vergiß, vergiß mein nicht! Das ist es, was ich meine. Und schließt sie früh die Laden auf, [Dann]2 schaut mit Liebesblick hinauf: Der Thau in euren Äugelein, Das sollen meine Thränen sein, Die will ich auf euch weinen.
J. Lang sets stanza 1
