Herz, mein Herz, sei nicht beklommen, Und ertrage dein Geschick. Neuer Frühling giebt zurück, Was der Winter dir genommen. Und wie viel ist dir geblieben! Und wie schön ist noch die Welt! Und mein Herz, was dir gefällt, Alles, alles darfst du lieben!

2. Leise zieht durch mein Gemüt  [sung text not yet checked]
Leise [zieht]1 durch mein Gemüth Liebliches Geläute. Klinge, kleines Frühlingslied, Kling' hinaus in's Weite. [Kling']2 hinaus bis an das Haus, Wo die [Blumen]3 sprießen. Wenn du eine Rose schaust, Sag' ich lass' sie grüßen.

3. Und wüßten's die Blumen, die kleinen  [sung text not yet checked]
Und wüßten's die Blumen, die kleinen, Wie tief verwundet mein Herz, Sie würden mit mir weinen, Zu heilen meinen Schmerz. Und wüßten's die Nachtigallen, Wie ich so traurig und krank, Sie ließen fröhlich erschallen Erquickenden Gesang. Und wüßten sie mein Wehe, Die [goldnen]1 Sternelein, Sie kämen aus ihrer Höhe, Und sprächen Trost mir ein. [Die]2 alle können's nicht wissen, Nur [eine]3 kennt meinen Schmerz; [Sie]4 hat ja selbst zerrissen, Zerrissen mir das Herz.
