Sag es nicht, geliebtes Herzchen, sag es nicht, daß wir heimlich uns gesprochen, sag es nicht; daß sich unsre Lippen fanden, wir zusammen aufgestanden, sag es nicht, sag es nicht. Sag es nicht, geliebtes Herzchen, sag es nicht, daß wir Nacht im Wald gewesen, sag es nicht; daß dein Heiland wir begegnet, er uns heimlich eingesegnet; sag es nicht, geliebtes Herzchen, sag es nicht, sag es nicht, sag es nicht.

Do not say it, beloved heart, Do not say that we spoke to each other in secret, Do not say it; that we found each other's lips, That we rose together, Do not say it, do not say it. Do not say it, beloved heart, Do not say that we were together in the woods at night, Do not say it; that we met your Saviour, That he consecrated us in secret, Do not say it, beloved heart, Do not say it, do not say it, do not say it.
