Komm'! Geh' mit mir in's Waldesgrün, Ich muß ein Wörtchen dir vertrauen! Doch sieh' dort erst die Rosen blüh'n, Die Täubchen ihre Nester bauen! Leg' erst dein Haupt in Sonnenschein, Und hör' die Nachtigallen schlagen! Blick' in den Himmel erst hinein! Erst dann sollst du mir Antwort sagen!

Come! Go with me to the green wood, I have a little something to confide in you! But first look there at the roses blooming, The doves are building their nest! First rest your head in the sunshine, And hear the nightingales singing! First look up into the sky! Not until then should you give me an answer!
