by Johann Wilhelm Ludwig Gleim (1719 - 1803)

Dein Mädchen, schön, wie Sonnenschein
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Dein Mädchen, schön, wie Sonnenschein,
Wie Morgenröthe schön!
Dein Mädchen lieblich, wie der Wein,
Den wir im Glase sehn,

Dein Mädchen lebe! Liebevoll
Du Lieber! lieb' es dich!
Und mich, du Lieber! lieben soll
Das Mädchen dich, und mich!

Als ihren Ersten lieben, dich,
Der ihr ein Engel scheint,
Wenn er zum Kusse winkt, und mich,
Als ihren ersten Freund!
