Hart1, wat is er? - Ik ben verliefd, dat is er. Hoe is je stemming dan? - Ik sta in vuur en vlam. Kan slaap je niet verkwikken? - Zo' n slaap vol angst en schrikken? Krijg je 't niet in de hand? - Wat wil je, met zo'n brand! Ik hoop, de tijd zal 't keren. - Alleen de dood zal 't weren. Wat bied j' om haar te zien? - Mij, jou, 't al bovendien! Je weet niet wat je zegt! - Ik ben verliefd, ja echt. Houd je verstand bijeen! - Dan word 'k zo koud als steen. Je zult er door teloor gaan! - Ach, laat het gauw dan doorgaan!
