by Anna Hildach (1852 - 1935)

Im Volkston
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Was leuchtet ihr Sterne 
so hell in der Nacht?
Mein Schatz, der ist ferne, 
hat mein nicht mehr Acht!

Ihr Vöglein, was singt ihr
am Morgen so schön?
Den Liebsten nicht bringt mir
euer helles Getön!

Verweht alle Blüten,
erfroren der Klee;
mag Gott dich behüten,
Herzliebster, ade!
