An deine schneeweiße Schulter
Language: German (Deutsch)
Our translations: FRE
An deine schneeweiße Schulter Hab ich mein Haupt gelehnt, Und heimlich kann ich behorchen, Wonach dein Herz sich sehnt. [Es]1 blasen die blauen Husaren, Und reiten zum Tor herein, Und morgen will mich verlassen Die Herzallerliebste mein. Und willst du mich morgen verlassen, So bist du doch heute noch mein, Und in deinen schönen Armen Will [ich doppelt selig]1 sein.
