Lied eines Mädchens
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Choose for Diff
Es ist ein süßes Leid
in meine Brust gedrungen,
ein Schmerz voll Seligkeit
hat leise mich umschlungen.
Ich weiß nicht, wie mir ist.

Ich war so froh und frei
wie's Vöglein im Walde;
ein Jäger kam herbei
und fing mich lockend balde.
Ich weiß nicht, wie mir ist.

Ein schöner Augenstern,
der hat mich auserkoren,
da hab' ich gar so gern
mein armes Herz verloren.
Ich weiß nicht, wie mir ist.
