Hi toadfrog,
be sure that your char code is Western (ISO-8859-1) before reading
NOT "Abends" BUT "Gestern" NOT "in den" BUT "in das" NOT "Mägtelein" BUT "Mägdelein"
Hearing Martha Schlamme sing 203 Bei Mondenschein it was no wonder that I didn't find the song with your beginning.
It is in ingeb.org in a slightly different version, seeming to be incomplete (Mägdlein, was machst du hier ... missing) 3. NOT "ich bin", BUT "ich bind'"
In another link I found it listed in a songbook which we don't have in the university library - but! I own it myself and shall look it up this evening. If it is really in there you'll get the words soon.
