Geh! Du sagst mir eine Fabel, Bastien's aria from Bastien und Bastienne

Geh! Du sagst mir eine Fabel.
Bastienne trüget nicht.
Nein, sie ist kein falscher Schnabel,
Welcher anders denkt als spricht.
Wenn mein Mund sie herzig nennet,
Hält sie mich gewiß für schön,
Und wenn sie vor Liebe brennet,
Muß die Glut von mir entstehn.
