J. S. Bach BWV 216:

1. Arie (Duett) S A - Neisse, Pleisse Vergnügte Pleißenstadt, - Beglückte Neißenstadt, - Dein Labsal, -Dein Blühen, - wächst und glänzt vor andern allen. Wer seine Lust an deinem Prangen, - deiner Schönheit - übt, Der wird und bleibt in dich verliebt, Dem kann es nirgends mehr gefallen. 2. Rezitativ S A - Neisse, Pleisse Sopran So angenehm auch mein Revier, So weicht mein Schönstes doch von mir. Wohin, Du anmutsvolle Hempelin? Alt Da, wo sie selber die Najaden An Pleißens Ufern eingeladen. Sopran Ach, Pleißenstrand, verhasster Pleißenstrand! Wer hat dich ihr So eingelobt und schön genannt? Du hast ja selbst bei dir An schönen Kindern Überfluss, Was willst du sie aus meiner Gegend holen? Drum sag ich jetzo mit Verdruss: Du hast mein Bestes mir gestohlen. 3. Arie S - Neisse Angenehme Hempelin, Deine Seel ist sonder Mängel, Dein Gesicht ist wie der Engel, Englisch ist dein ganzer Sinn, Angenehme Hempelin. Allerliebste Hempelin, Du, du warest meine Zier, Aber seit du nicht bei mir, Ist auch meine Krone hin, Allerliebste Hempelin.

1. Aria (Duet) - Neisse, Pleisse Contented city of the Pleisse, - Fortunate city of the Neisse, – Your delight - Your flourishing - increases and sparkles above all others. Whoever takes pleasure in your splendor, - your beauty, - Will fall in love and remain in love with you, And nothing else will please him more. 2. Recitative S A - Neisse, Pleisse Neisse As pleasant as my borders are, Yet the fairest inhabitant departs from me. Where are you going, Most charming Fräulein Hempel? Pleisse Here, where the Naiads themselves Welcome her to Pleisse’s banks. Neisse Ah, Pleisse’s shore, hated Pleisse’s shore! Who has praised you so And described you as lovely to her? You have your own Abundance of beautiful children; Why do you want to take her from my region? With annoyance I now say to you: You have stolen my best from me. 3. Aria S Neisse Charming Fräulein Hempel, Your soul has no flaw, Your face is like an angel’s, And angelic are all your thoughts, Charming Fräulein Hempel. Darling Fräulein Hempel, You, you were my jewel, But since you have left me, My crown has also gone, Darling Fräulein Hempel.

4. Rezitativ A - Pleisse Erspare den Verdruss, Beliebter Neißenfluß, Und sende deine Hempelin Zu mir mit gutem Willen hin! Komm, wähle hier Auch unter meinen Söhnen! Gesetzt nun, es gefiele dir Darunter auch ein Bräutigam Vor eine deiner Schönen, So hast du allemal Hierinnen eine freie Wahl. Genung, dass ich will alle Morgen Dein schönes Kind mit Glück und Hei 5. Arie A- Pleisse Mit Lachen und Scherzen, Mit Küssen und Herzen Verbindet die Liebe das ewige Band. Da scheinen die Jahre wie Tage verschwunden, Da werden auch selber die Stunden Minuten genannt. 6. Rezitativ A S - Pleisse, Neisse Alt Wie lieblich wird sie nun Von meinen Weibern aufgenommen! Schau, wie sie freundlich mit ihr tun! Sie heißen sie durch mich willkommen. Sopran Es sei, nachdem ich überführt, Dass meine Hempelin An ihrer Freude nichts verliert. Geliebter Wolff; der ihr geneigt und treu, Nimm sie in ihrem Kranze hin! Alt Die Haube wird sie morgen kriegen. Sopran Das ist ja so der Jungfern ihr Vergnügen. Alt Indessen schließ ich dieses Zwei In mein getreues Wünschen ein. Sopran Mein Sinn soll wie der deine sein.

4. Recitative A Pleisse Temper your annoyance, Dear Neisse River, And send your Fräulein Hempel To me with a good will! Come, make a choice Here among my sons! Were it to happen, that among them One pleased you as a bridegroom For one of your beauties, Then you would have at any time A free choice here. Let it be enough, that every day I will care for your lovely child With health and good fortune. 5. Aria A Pleisse With laughter and play, With kisses and caresses, Love creates its eternal bonds. Then years seem like days gone by, Then even hours can be called minutes. 6. Recitative A S - Pleisse, Neisse Pleisse How lovingly will she now be welcomed among my women! Behold, how friendly they are with her! They send their greetings to her through me. Neisse I wish that, after I have brought her here, my Fräulein Hempel Will lose nothing of her joy. Dearest Wolff; loving and attached to her, Receive her all in garlands! Pleisse She will wear her veil tomorrow. Neisse For a young maiden, that is a great pleasure! Pleisse Meanwhile I will enclose these two In my most earnest wishes. Neisse My thoughts will be one with yours.

7. Arie (Duett) A S Pleisse, Neisse Alt Heil und Segen Müß euch, wertes Paar, verpflegen, Wie mein Fluss die Auen labt. Sopran Und die Wonne, die ihr habt, Soll und wird sich mit Ersprießen Reicher als mein Strom ergießen. Alt und Sopran So werden die Wiegen, - die Seelen - mit Kindern, - mit Wollust - geziert, Und solches je länger, je lieber geführt.

7. Aria (Duet) A S - Pleisse, Neisse Pleisse Health and blessing Shall care for you, worthy pair, As my stream refreshes the meadows. Neisse And the delight you share Shall spring forth More richly than my stream gushes. Pleisse and Neisse Thus will their cradles- their souls - with children - with delight - be adorned, and the longer these are enjoyed, the dearer they will be.
