Was sucht denn der Jäger am Mühlbach hier? Bleib', trotziger Jäger, in deinem Revier! Hier giebt es kein Wild zu jagen für dich, Hier wohnt nur ein Rehlein, ein zahmes, für mich. Und willst du das zärtliche Rehlein sehn, So laß deine Büchsen im Walde stehn, Und laß deine klaffenden Hunde zu Haus, Und laß auf dem Horne den Saus und Braus, Und scheere vom Kinne das struppige Haar, Sonst scheut sich im Garten das Rehlein fürwahr. Doch besser, du bliebest im Walde dazu, Und ließest die Mühlen und Müller in Ruh'. Was taugen die Fischlein im grünen Gezweig? Was will denn das Eichhorn im bläulichen Teich? Drum bleibe, du trotziger Jäger, im Hain, Und laß mich mit meinen drei Rädern allein; Und willst meinem Schätzchen dich machen beliebt, So wisse, mein Freund, was ihr Herzchen betrübt: Die Eber, die kommen zu Nacht aus dem Hain, Und brechen in ihren Kohlgarten ein, Und treten und wühlen herum in dem Feld: Die Eber, die [schieße]1, du Jägerheld!

왜 냇가로 오나, 사냥꾼아? 네 사냥터 안에 머물지 않고! 여긴 너의 사냥감이 없어. 내 귀여운 작은 사슴 하나 뿐. 그 예쁜 사슴 보고 싶으면 네 총은 숲속에 두고 오라. 사냥개는 집에다 매어 두고. 뿔 나팔도 불어대지 말고. 턱수염도 말끔히 깎고 오라. 내 사슴이 놀라서 뛰지 않게. 그러나 너 숲속에 머무르라. 이 물방앗간에 평화 있도록. 나무에서 물고기 어찌 살까? 연못에서 다람쥐 무얼 할까? 사냥꾼아, 숲속에 머무르라. 나 홀로 물방아와 있게 하라. 내 사랑 그녀 마음 얻으려면 그녀 걱정 무언지 알아두라. 밤이면 숲속에서 뛰쳐나와 그녀의 마당에 들어와서 꽃밭을 짓밟는 멧돼지라네. 그 놈이나 잡게, 사냥꾼아!
