Eight Minnelieder are attributed to Wernher in
Codex Manesse, with the following incipits: :1.
Mit urlob wil ich hinnan varn / unt scheiden von dem lande / und niemen wider komen drin ("With leave, I will fare hence, and depart from the land, and never come back to it") :2.
Min vro minnekliche Minne / war umbe hant ir mir die sinne / so ser, so vast an si gewant ("My lady lovable
Love, why have you set my mind so much, so fast upon her?") :3. ''Mit urlob wil ich scheiden von dem lande / hertz' unde muot daz laz' ich ir ze pfande'' ("With leave I will depart the land, my heart and mind I give to her as pawn") :4.
Mich jamert uz der mâze / nach der lieben vrowen min ("I yearn beyond all measure for my beloved lady") :5.
Ez ist ein spot / vart ie hertze von leide verseret / sam daz mine? Minne daz ist din getat ("It is a mockery, was there ever a heart as devastated by suffering such as mine? Love, this is your doing") :6.
Wol mich hiut und iemer me, ich saeh ein wip, der ir munt von roete bran ("It is well for me, today and forever more, I have seen a woman, whose mouth was burning with redness") :7.
Ich muoz klagen, daz diu zit / sich so gar verkeret hat ("I must lament, that the times have turned around so completely") :8. ''Wie mak daz iemer so beschehen / daz ich so sere fürcht' ein wip'' ("How could it ever have come to pass, that I am so afraid of a woman") ==References==
