So hast du ganz und gar vergessen, Daß ich so lang dein Herz besessen, Dein Herzchen so süß und so falsch und so klein, Es kann nirgend was süßres [und]1 falscheres sein. So hast du die Lieb und das Leid vergessen, Die das Herz mir täten zusammenpressen. Ich weiß nicht, war Liebe größer als Leid? Ich weiß nur, sie waren groß alle beid!

L'as-tu donc oublié, tout à fait oublié, Que ton cœur fut à moi; que mon cœur fut lié A ton cher petit cœur, si mignon, si perfide, Qu'un pareil, je le crois, nulle part ne réside? As-tu donc oublié mon amour souverain, Mon amour qu'a suivi tout de sombre chagrin? -- Je ne sais si l'amour dépassa la souffrance, Je sais bien que des deux la grandeur fut immense.
