E. schön und zart, von edler Art by Ludwig Senfl — Lyrics
1.E schön und zart
von edler Art,
erzeigt hast dich
gen mich freundlich.
Was das bedeut bleib'
mir der Streit:
nach meiner Gier,
all Lieb und Treu
teil ich mit dir.
2.Lieb hat kein Maß
bedenk für bass die Sach:
ich mein nur dich
allein aus ganzer Gnad.
