Splitter-Richter (Anonymous, set by G. Telemann) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


Magst du, was meine Fehler sind
von meinem feinde gerne hören,
so laß auch meinen freund dich lehren,
was man für gutes an mir findt.
Spricht man dort übel ohne masse,
schreibt man mir hier was göttlichs zu,
so wähle du die mittelstrasse;
gedenk: ich bin ein mensch, wie du.
