Ach Medlein fein las dir das wol gefallen by Thomas Mancinus — Lyrics
Ach Mägdlein fein,
lass dir das wohl gefallen,
ohn falschen Schein,
dass ich dich lieb für allen.
Viel schöner Kind
auf Erd man find,
dass manchem bringet Wunder,
doch nicht geborn
wie du erkorn
des Herzen tiefen Grunde.
Mit großer Gier steht mein sehnlichs Verlangen,
leben mit dir, dann du mich hast gefangen
durch Zucht und Ehr,

About Ach Medlein fein las dir das wol gefallen
Thomas Mancinus's Ach Medlein fein las dir das wol gefallen is a secular German madrigal for SATTB choir. The text is a declaration of love from a suitor to his beloved, praising her virtues and expressing his deep desire to be with her. He contrasts her with others, stating that none can compare. He vows to remain faithful, seeing her as his only true desire and seeking God's blessing for their union. The music would suit a light-hearted concert programme or a gathering where expressions of romantic affection are appropriate.
