by Christian Felix Weisse (1726 - 1804)

Lieber Amor, leihe mir
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Lieber Amor, leihe mir
einen doch von deiner Pfeilen!
ich will auch den Raub mit dir,
Cloens Herze mit dir teilen.

[Böses Kind! du willst nicht? flieh'!
Sonst werd ichs der Mutter klagen]1:
Cloens Augen leihst du sie,
und mir, willst du sie versagen?

Lieber Amor...
