by Johann Georg Jacobi (1740 - 1814)

Holdes Mädchen! unser Leben
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Holdes Mädchen! unser Leben
War ein frohes Hirtenspiel:
Kränze durften wir uns geben
Küsse, wann es uns gefiel.
      
Herde Stab, und Fest, und Freude,
Lied und Kränze sind dahin!
Dennoch reden Flur und Weide
Mir von meiner Schäferinn.
      
Engel oder Liebesgötter
Mahlen ein getreues Bild
Auf die kleinsten Rosenblätter:
Alles ist von dir erfüllt.
