Our translations: ENG
Mutter, Mütterchen, ach sei nicht böse, Daß ich in den Wald gegangen, Mutter, Mütterchen, die Sonn' schien helle Und die kleinen Vöglein sangen! Ach! Mutter, Mütterchen, ach sei nicht böse, Will dir stets gehorsam sein. Mutter, Mütterchen, die Sonn' schien helle, Schmetterlinge kosten im Sonnenschein! Und ich muß es dir gestehen: Meinen Liebsten fand ich dort, 'S ist ein junger, schmucker Jäger; An ihn denk' ich immerfort! Ach! Mutter, Mütterchen, ach sei nicht böse, Will dir stets gehorsam sein. Mutter, Mütterchen, die Sonn' schien helle Schmetterlinge kosten im Sonnenschein!
