I use the guttural "r" sound, which you would use in normal speaking.
When singing: Feel free to roll the "r" with the tip of your tongue, wherever you hear a guttural "r" in this audio file.


Minnelied

Holder klingt der Vogelsang,
Wenn die Engelreine,
Die mein Jünglingsherz bezwang,
Wandelt durch die Haine.

Röter blühen Tal und Au,
Grüner wird der Wasen,
Wo mir Blumen rot und blau
ihre Hände lasen.

Ohne sie ist Alles tot,
Welk sind Blüt und Kräuter,
Und kein Frühlingsabendrot
Dünkt mir schön und heiter.

Traute, minnigliche Frau,
Wollest nimmer fliehen;
Daß mein Herz, gleich dieser Au,
Mög’ in Wonne blühen!


Lovesong

The song of birds sounds more beautiful
When the pure angel
Who has defeated my young heart
Wanders through the grove.

Valley and meadow bloom redder,
The grass becomes greener,
where her fingers picked
red and blue flowers for me.

Without her all is dead,
Flowers and herbs are wilted,
And the spring sunset
seems neither beautiful nor merry.

Dear loving woman,
Don’t ever leave me;
That my heart, like this meadow,
may bloom in bliss!
