Tod, ruf noch nicht

Available translation(s): ENG
Tod! ruf' noch nicht!
Hab' bis jetzt nur gestritten,
Hab' bis jetzt nur gelitten!
Tod! ruf' noch nicht!
Erst möcht' ich einmal küssen,
Einmal vom Glücke wissen!
Dann ruf' mich, Tod!

Death! do not summon [me] yet
Language: English  after the German (Deutsch)
Death! do not summon [me] yet!
Up until now I have only fought,
Up until now I have only suffered!
Death! do not summon [me] yet!
First I would like to kiss once,
To know of happiness once!
Then summon me, death!
