Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  DUT
Einen guten Grund hat's, daß mein Liebchen
Über Alles schön und herrlich ist geraten:
Denn mit Lenztau ward getauft das Bübchen,
Mond und Sonne waren seine Paten.
Sonne setzt’ ins Aug’ ihm goldne Kerzen:
Wenn er aufschaut, glühen alle Herzen.
Und der Mond küßt’ ihm den Mund von ferne:
Wenn er lächelt, klingen alle Sterne.
