(From: Kaschel)
Translated by Ed Bernthal

More understandable, understandable is the calf
Than the footloose youth.

The calf eats till it has enough, drinks till it has enough,
And sleeps restfully at night.

The youth eats till he has enough, drinks till he has enough,
But creeps around all night.

And that is the old mother’s constant complaint,
His disturbing the young girls.
