Translated by Ed Bernthal

We have now come to you here
To see if there was any love for us from you.

Together we have thought this through
You certainly did not expect us.

So show us what you have to give us
And don’t let us stand here too long.

Don’t let us step into your dirt
So that our shoes would needlessly be ruined.

And would our lady hostess be so kind
To give us a whole sausage.

And if she makes a mistake, it would be nice, ei ei
That she would give us two sausages.

We would like to have the host serve our table with
A jug of beer
A glass of wine
A bunch of money
Will be his.

And Haenschen should soon be married
Beautiful Agnes N.N. will be his.

And Haenchen should soon be married
Handsome Andreas N.N. will be hers.
