Lyrics:

Vor der Kaserne, vor dem grossen Tor,
stand eine Laterne, und  steht sie noch davor.
So wollen wir uns da wiedersehn,
vor der Laterne woll’n wir steh’n
wie einst, Lilli Marleen, wie einst, Lilli Marleen.

Unsre beider Schatten, sah wie einer aus,
dass wir so lieb uns hatten, dass sah man gleich daraus.
Und alle Leute soll’n es sehn,
wenn wir bei der Laterne steh’n,
wie einst, Lilli Marleen, wie einst, Lilli Marleen.

Deine Schritte kennt sie, deinen schönen Gang,
alle  Abend brennt sie, doch mich vergaß sie lang.
Und sollte mir ein Leid gescheh’n,
wer wird bei der Laterne steh'n,
mit dir, Lilli Marleen, mit dir, Lilli Marleen.

Aus dem stillen Raume, aus der Erde Grund,
hebt sich wie im Traume dein vgeliebter Mund.
Wenn sich die späten Nebel dreh’n,
werd ich bei der Laterne steh’n,
mit dir, Lilli Marleen, mit dir, Lilli Marleen.
