Die Post
Language:
German
Von der Straße her ein Posthorn klingt.
Was hat es, daß es so hoch aufspringt,
Mein Herz?
Die Post bringt keinen Brief für dich.
Was drängst du denn so wunderlich,
Mein Herz?
Nun ja, die Post [kömmt]1 aus der Stadt,
Wo ich ein liebes Liebchen hatt',
Mein Herz!
Willst wohl einmal hinüberseh'n
Und fragen, wie es dort mag geh'n,
Mein Herz?
