Mit dem Pallasch in der Hand.

Ohne [Geld]1 und ohne Brot.

Frohen [Mutes]2 in den Tod.

Treu bei unsrem Feldgeschrei.

Nur siegen oder sterben,

Els hússars han de cavalcar
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch)
Els hússars han de cavalcar
arreu a través de ciutats i camps.
Tralala!
Els hússars han de batallar
amb el sabre a la mà.
Tralala!
Com podríem descoratjar-nos
sense diners i sense pa.
Tralala!
Els hússars han de llançar-se
amb ànim joiós vers la mort.
Tralala!
Les trompetes i els clarins
ressonen per a nosaltres tan dolços i gentils.
Tralala!
Els obusos i els canons
brogeixen alegrament en l’endemig.
Tralala!
Com ens podríem malmetre
tan fidels als nostres crits de batalla.
Tralala!
Tan sols vèncer o morir,
camarada, resta convingut.
Tralala, tralala, tra la!
