Fünf Lieder für Sopran oder Tenor mit Pianoforte , opus 2
by Gustav Rebling (1821 - 1902)
1. Vöglein wohin so eilig?
2. Frühling  [sung text not yet checked]
Und wenn die Primel schneeweiß blickt Am Bach, am Bach aus dem Wiesengrund, Und wenn [vom]1 Baum die Kirschblüth nickt Und die Vöglein pfeifen im Wald allstund: Da flickt der Fischer das Netz in Ruh, [Denn der]2 See liegt heiter im Sonnenglanz; Da sucht das Mädel die rothen Schuh, Und schnürt das Mieder sich eng zum Tanz, Und denket still, Ob der Liebste, der Liebste nicht kommen will. Es klingt die Fiedel, es brummt der Baß, Der Dorfschulz [sitzet]3 im Schank beim Wein, Die Tänzer drehn sich ohn' Unterlaß An der Lind', an der Lind' im Abendschein. Und geht's nach Haus' um Mitternacht, Glühwürmchen trägt das Laternchen vor, Da [küsset der Bube sein Dirnel]4 sacht, Und sagt ihr leis' ein [Wörtchen]5 ins Ohr, Und sie denken beid': O du [selige fröhliche]6 [Maienzeit.]7

Du bist wie eine Blume [So hold und schön und rein;]1 Ich schau' dich an, und Wehmut Schleicht mir ins Herz hinein. Mir ist, als ob [ich]2 die Hände Aufs Haupt [dir]3 legen sollt', [Betend]4, daß [Gott dich]5 erhalte [So rein und schön und hold.]6
