Der Liebesbrief
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Mei Schatz, der hat mer g'schriebe
e Briefle net und fein;
er wird me ewig liebe
und trei mer immer sein,
und tauset herz'ge Küsse
hat er darauf gedruckt;
i kann es net beschreibe,
wie i da han geguckt.

Mei Schätzli, kannst mer glaube,
i halt di liab und wert,
di kann kin G'schick mir raube,
du bist mer halt beschert.
Und bist du in der Ferne,
denk' i doch stets an di,
bist mir ins Herz 'nein g'wachse,
mei Schatz, so innigli.

Und dees will i dir schreibe
ins Briefle net und fein,
dass i dir treu verbleibe,
dees wird di g'wiss erfreu'n.
Ade, mei liebes Schätzli,
ade, und bleib au g'sund,
mie Liab kann nimmer wanke,
sie steht auf festem Grund.schut
