by Heinrich Heine (1797 - 1856)
Translation

Du schönes Schiffermädchen
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Du schönes Schiffermädchen, 
Komm zieh den Kahn an's Land. 
Setz' dich an meine Seite, 
Wir kosen Hand in Hand.

Leg' an mein Herz dein Köpfchen 
Und fürchte dich nicht so sehr, 
Vertraust du dich doch täglich 
Stündlich dem wilden Meer.

Dieß Herz es gleicht dem Meere, 
Hat Sturm und Ebb und Fluth, 
Und manche schöne Perle 
In seiner Tiefe ruht.
