Liebe Rose, Blume der Rosen, Willst du mich meiden, so sag' es mir klar; Dich liebt' ich seit frühesten Tagen, Ich liebt' dich durch Monden und Jahr. Ich liebt' dich durch Stunden und Monde, War es in Trauer, war es in Scherz; Liebe Rose, Blume der Rosen, Nun gib mir zurück mein Herz. Dich liebt' ich durch Monden und Jahre, Mit Herz, mit Mund und mit Blick; Liebe Rose, Blume der Rosen, Nun gib mir die Jahre zurück.

Dear rose, flower of the roses, If you wish to avoid me, then tell me so clearly; I have loved you since the earliest days, I loved you through months and years. I loved you through hours and months, Were it in mourning, were it in jest; Dear rose, flower of the roses, Now give me back my heart. I loved you through months and years, With my heart, my mouth and my glances; Dear rose, flower of the roses, Now give me back those years.
