(from Doergenhausen)
Translated by H. Melvin Symmank
'So take it now to you,
Here you have it from me,
The red apple,
The silk handkerchief.'
"I truly desire to take for me,
I know not if I should
Because of my landlady
And my little mother."'
"If little mother knew how good
You are to me
That her dear little daughter
Has a dear sweetheart!"
'Should she not long assured
To know it from you?
But the little mother rebukes
Not her little daughter!'
