Rede, Mddchen, allzu liebes
Am Gesteine rauscht die Flut
O die Frauen
Wie des Abends schOne Rote
Die grdne Hopfenranke
Ein kleiner, hdbscher Vogel
Wohl schOn bewandt war es
Wenn so lind dein Auge mir
Am Donaustrande
O wie sanft die Quelle
Nein, es ist nicht auszukommen
Schlosser auf, and mache Schlosser
Vogelein durchrauscht die Luft
Sieh, wie ist die Quelle klar
Nachtigall, sie singt so schOn
Ein dunkeler Schacht ist Liebe
Nicht wandle, mein Licht
Es bebet das Gestrauche
