by Ernst Ludwig Schellenberg (1883 - 1964)

Der Dieb
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  CAT
Ich bin ein Dieb geworden, 
Ein bitterböser Dieb;
Hab' einen Kuß gestohlen
Von meinem schönen Lieb.

Die hat mich erst gescholten:
Nennst du das feinen Brauch!?
Sie weinte gar und schluchzte
Und küßte mich dann auch.
