Ich liebe dich
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wie so verwandelt fühl’ ich mich
welch eine Lust ist über mich gekommen
seit ich das süsse Wort von ihm vernommen,
das süsse Wort, ich liebe dich.

Die Ruh aus meinem Herzen wich,
doch ruf ’ ich nicht zurück den stillen Frieden,
unendlich höhres Gluck hat mir beschieden
das süssen Wort, ich liebe dich.

In seinem Banne hält es mich
gefesselt stark mit unlösbaren Schwingen
und ewig wird’s in meinem Herzen klingen
das süsse Wort, ich liebe dich.
