Dein Herzlein mild, du liebes Bild,
das ist noch nicht erglommen,
und drinnen ruht verträumte Glut,
wird bald zu Tage kommen.
Es hat die Nacht ein'n Tau gebracht
den knospen all im Walde
und morgens drauf da blühts zuhauf'
und duftet durch die Halde.
Die Liebe sacht hat über Nacht
dir Tau ins Herz gegossen,
und Morgens dann, man sieht dirs an,
das Knösplein ist erschlossen.

Thy mild heart, sweet image,
has not yet lighted up.
Inside, a dreamy glow lies dormant,
which will soon manifest itself.
The night has brought dew
to all buds in the woods,
and in the morning, a sea of blossom
spreads its fragrance across the slope.
Tender love has, through the night,
poured dew into the heart
and in the morning, behold,
the little bud has flourished.
