Der Schäfer
Language:
German
Es war ein fauler Schäfer,
Ein rechter Siebenschläfer,
Ihn kümmerte kein Schaf.
Ein Mädchen konnt ihn fassen,
Da war der Tropf verlassen,
Appetit und Schlaf!
Es trieb ihn in die Ferne,
Des nachts zählt er die Sterne,
Er klagt und härmt sich brav.
Nun da sie ihn genommen,
Ist alles wieder kommen,
Durst, Appetit und Schlaf.
