possibly by Johanna Kinkel (1810 - 1858)

Geburtstagsliedchen für den Vater
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
Es läuten die Glocken bam bimmel bumbum,
Es schiessen Kanonen pupuh, und warum?
Dem lieben Papa sein Geburtstag ist heut,
Und darum erschallt so muntres Geläut.
Wir waren des Tages schon lange gedenk,
Und bringen dir Blumen und manches Geschenk:
Dafür gieb ein Küsschen, du Herzenspapa
Den Kinderchen allen, und auch der Mama.
