Im wunderschõnen Monat Mai; Au mc:nen Tränen spriessm; Die Rose, die Lalie, die Taube; Wenn ich in deine Augen seh'; Ich will meine Seele tauahen; Im Rhein, im heiligetn Strome Ich grolle nicht; Und wüssters de Blumeo; Das ist ein Flöten und Geigen; Hor' ioh das Liedchen klingen; Ein Jüngling liebt eia Madchen; Am ieuchtenden Sommermorgen; Icih hab' im Traum geweiner; Allnächtlich im Traume seh' ion diob; Aus alien Marchen winkt es; Die alten bosen Lieder
