by Günther Walling (1839 - 1896)

Mit dem Fächer, Schelmin, machst Du
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Mit dem Fächer, Schelmin, machst Du
Heimlich Zeichen Deinem Freund,
Blickst bald ernst dabei, bald lachst Du,
So daß ganz verwirrt er scheint.

Einhalt thu dem losen Spiele!
Vor der Sonne Schutz gewährt
Dir der Fächer, spendend Kühle,
Ihm bringt's Gluth, die ihn verzehrt.
