Schmilz, hartes Herz
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Zerschmilz du felsenhartes Hertze!
Zerschmilz von meiner heißen Glut!
Und kühle das entzündte Blut
Mit einem frohen Liebeschertze!

Zerspringt ihr demantfesen Sinnen,
Die sonst kein Feuer zwingen kann:
Ach, nehmt euch meines Jammers an!
Was wollt ihr doch mit mir beginnen?

Zerreist ihr starcken Anckerseile
Und löst mein Schiffgen wieder auf,
Laßt doch dem Glücke seinen Lauff
Damit ich in den Hafen eile.
