Mancher wohl warb um mich, 3. Robin Adair! Treu aber liebt' ich dich, Robin Adair! Mgen sie and're frei'n, Ich will nur dir allein Leben und Liebe weih'n, Robin Adair!}

There are several English versions written for the old Irish air "Eileen Aroon," all having "Robin Adair" as the refrain. The German version by some unknown poet of the first quarter of the present century, possesses all the charming simplicity and dramatic directness of the {Volkslied} of earlier times. Though adapted to the same air and with the same refrain, its contents are altogether original.—Of the different English versions, the following comes nearest the German wording, and may therefore be used in translating:

Come to my heart again, Robin Adair! Never to part again, Robin Adair! And if you still are true, I will be constant, too, And will wed none but you, Robin Adair!
