by Adolf Grimminger (1827 - 1903)

Mädele guck 'raus, guck 'raus
Language: Swabian (Schwäbisch) 
Mädele guck 'raus, guck 'raus, 
  D'Nachtigalle schlage -- 
Schtôht a-n Armer vor deĩ'm Haus, 
Der net wôiß wo eĩ und aus, 
  Möcht dir Ebbes sage -- 
    Mädele guck 'raus. 

Mädele komm her, komm her,
  Bischt so lieb zum schtehle;
Hôscht a Herz voll Treu und Ehr, 
Schau, wenn des meĩ ôige wär,
  Thät mer nex mẽh fehle -- 
    Mädele komm her. 

Mädele schlag eĩ', schlag eĩ', 
  Aber net dernebe, 
Sag net jô und sag net neĩ', 
So mag 's End vom Liedle sei', 
  Daß du meĩ' für's Lebe -- 
    Mädele schlag eĩ'!
