Lieb Liebchen, leg’s Händchen aufs Herze mein
Place your hand on my heart, my dear

Heine
Place your hand on my heart, my dear.
It’s beating all the time, d’you hear?
A nasty carpenter lives in there
Crafting my coffin fair and square.
He bangs and hammers day and night;
And on my sleep he’s cast a blight.
Now, master-carpenter, end your task.
I want to sleep – it’s all I ask.
