er ist so schön und fein,
bekränzet Tür und Fenster
und ladet ihn fröhlich ein;
Bereitet ihm die Wege
und schmücket ihm das Haus,

2  Ja in die Herzen lasset
einzieh'n den seligen Mai
und denkt, dass ihm die Liebe
die liebste Blume sei;
die Liebe, die von Herzen
beständig ist und treu,
denn Treue nur erhält sie

1  Come, greet ye May with garlands,
May, that is fair and fine;
Come, wreathe ye door and window,
And joyfully call her in.
Bestrew for her the pathway,
For her the house array,
And bid your hearts be driving
Their wonted cares away.

2  Yea, bid your hearts an entrance,
Give unto blessed May,
Since love will seem more lovely
Than all the flowers today;
The love that deep is founded,
That constant is, and true;
For truth alone can keep it,
Like May, still fresh and new.

3  The fairest rose, what were she,
If failing the air to fill,
With all the sweetest odours
She can from herself distil?
What were the worth of loving,
Unless the faithful heart
Guarded as holy the rapture
That love did once impart.
