Lyrics:
In einem Bächlein helle, da schoss in froher Eil
Die launische Forelle vorüber wie ein Pfeil
Ich stand an dem Gestade und sah in süßer Ruh
|: Des muntern Fischleins Bade im klaren Bächlein zu :|

Ein Fischer mit der Rute wohl an dem Ufer stand
Und sah's mit kaltem Blute, wie sich das Fischlein wand
So lang dem Wasser Helle, so dacht ich, nicht gebricht
|: So fängt er die Forelle mit seiner Angel nicht :|

Doch endlich ward dem Diebe die Zeit zu lang
Er macht das Bächlein tückisch trübe und eh ich es gedacht
So zuckte seine Rute; das Fischlein zappelt dran
|: Und ich, mit regem Blute, sah die Betrogne an :|
