Repertoire

Mein Hertz daß mir hast gstohlen, wolt wiederumben,
ganz geren kommen, in seinen ersten stande.
Es kan nicht länger leiden Liebesbanden,
gibs doch von handen.

My heart that you stole from me wants to return,
longs to come back to its former state.
It can’t stand the bonds of love any more.
Please give it back.

Weil meines Hertzen liebe, ach weh mir Armen,
ists nicht zubaren, Vergolten wirdt mit hassen.
So beger ichs wie vor in aller massen,
thu mirs doch lassen.

Because the love in my heart, O poor me,
is not valued, but gets only hatred in return,
I long to have it as it was before in all ways.
Please let it go.
