Komm heraus, komm heraus,
o du schöne, schöne Braut,
dein guten Tage sind nun alle, alle aus!
Dein Schleierlein weht so feucht und tränenschwer,
o, wie weinet die schöne Braut so sehr!
Muß die Mägdlein lassen stehn,
mußt nun zu den Frauen gehn.

Lege an, lege an heut auf kurze Zeit
deine Seidenröslein, dein reiches Brautgeschmeid!
Dein Schleierlein weht so feucht und tränenschwer,
o, wie weinet die schöne Braut so sehr!
Mußt die Zöpflein schließen ein
unterm goldnen Häubelein.

Winke nur, sind gar leichte Wink;
bis den Finger drücket der goldne Treuering!
Dein Schleierlein weht so feucht und tränenschwer,
o, wie weinet die schöne Braut so sehr!
Ringlein sehn heut lieblich aus,
morgen werden Fesseln draus.
