German text

Es gieng guot Tröscher über land.
Er kam, da er zetröschen fand.
Do fidelet er ir, do giget si im gar süesse.

Zart jungfrow, ir sind wolgemuot.
Uff üw'ren tenn wär tröschen gout.
Do fidelet er ...

Er tät ihr wie der han der henn.
Do fidelet er ...

Then he did fiddel ...

And did to her as the rooster does to the hen.
Then he did fiddel ...
