Volksliedchen Op.51 n°2 (Rückert/Schumann) (An die Musik - Schumann)

When I go into the garden early
In my green hat,
My first thought is,
What will my dearest be doing?

There is not a star in the sky,
Which I would not want my friend to have.
I would willingly give him my heart,
If only I could take it out.

When I go into the garden early,
In my green hat,
My first thought is,
What will my dearest be doing?
