German text
Das Mädchen:
- “Vorüber! ach, vorüber!
- Geh, wilder Knochenmann!
- Ich bin noch jung, geh, Lieber!
- Und rühre mich nicht an.”
Der Tod:
- “Gib deine Hand, du schön und zart Gebild’,
- Bin Freund und komme nicht zu strafen.
- Sei gutes Muts! Ich bin nicht wild,
- Sollst sanft in meinen Armen schlafen.
