Die wilden Nelken haben's geseh'n
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Die wilden Nelken haben's geseh'n,
Als ich den Mund dir bot,
Und seh' ich am Rain nun Nelken steh'n,
Werd' ich wie Blut so roth.
 
Es läßt mir nicht Rast, es läßt mir nicht Ruh',
Ich pflücke sie alle ab --
Darf Keines wissen als ich und du,
Daß ich geküßt dich hab'!
