Gar lieblich hat sich gesellet Mein Herz in kurzer Frist, Zu einer, die mir gefället, Gott weiß wohl, wer sie ist; Sie liebet mich ganz inniglich, Die Allerliebste mein, Mit Treuen ich sie mein. Wohl für des Maien Blüte Hab ich sie mir erkorn, Sie erfreut mir mein Gemüte Mein'n Dienst hab ich ihr g'schworn, Den will ich halten stetiglich, Sein ganz ihr untertan, Dieweil ichs Leben han. Ich gleich sie einem Engel, Die Herzallerliebste mein, Ihr Härlein kraus als ein Sprengel, Ihr Mündlein rot als Rubein, Zwei blanke Ärmlein, die sind schmal, Dazu ein roter Mund, Der lacht zu aller Stund. Mit Venus-Pfeiln durchschossen Das junge Herze mein; Schöns Lieb, sei unverdrossen, Setz deinen Willen drein. Gesegn dich Gott, mein schönes Lieb, Ich soll und muß von dir, Du siehst mich wieder schier.

Assai amabilmente si è accompagnato il mio cuore, e in breve tempo, con una che mi è molto cara, Chi è lei, Dio lo sa bene; E lei profondamente mi ama, la mia amatissima, io penso a lei e le sono fedele. Quando maggio era tutto in fiore a lei ho dedicato il mio cuore, lei rende felice il mio animo le ho giurato fedeltà, voglio legarmi a lei saldamente, essere tutto per lei finché avrò vita. La paragono a un angelo, la mia dolcissima amata, I suoi capelli ricci sono un fuoco d'artificio, la sua boccuccia sembra un rubino, sottili e candide sono le sue braccia, e rossa la sua bocca, sempre pronta al sorriso. Trafitto dai dardi di Venere, è il mio giovane cuore; Mia bella amata, sii solerte, dammi il tuo consenso. Dio ti benedica, mio dolce amore, debbo separarmi da te, ma mi rivedrai ancora.
