Der Trost
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Moravian (Moravština)
Wäldchen, wer hütet Dich? Der dich gehegt bisher, tot liegt der Jägersmann. Da ist kein Hüter mehr. Kann nicht dein Schützer sein, o du mein Waldrevier, kann nicht dein Schützer sein, o du mein Waldrevier. Herzliebes Mägdelein, herzliebes Mägdelein, nimmer komm ich zu dir. Ach, Du mein grüner Wald, wer wird dein Hüter sein? 0, du mein Mägdelein, wer wird um Dich nun frei'n? Noch ist so mancher Bursch, der mich beschützt und heg', Mancher Geselle noch findet zu uns den Weg.
