Gönn' mir dies heiße, hoffnungslose
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Gönn' mir dies heiße, hoffnungslose
[Dich lieben]1, schöne, süße Frau!
"[Du bist doch meine]2 weiße Rose"
Und meine Tränen sind ihr Tau!

Ein and'rer ruht in deinem Schoße,
[Ich schweif' in kühler Abendluft:
"Du bist doch meine weiße Rose" --]3
Und stürb' ich auch an ihrem Duft!4
