Der Rausch
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): ENG
Es hat ein hübsches Maidel
Nur allzuviel zu tun,
Der Bursche trinkt manch Seidel
Und kann hernach nicht ruhn.
Und wenn sie dann sich trafen,
Wer kann was dafür?
Er hat den Rausch verschlafen,
Der Rausch, er schläft mit ihr.

Snoring
Language: English  after the German (Deutsch)
There was a charming gal
with all too much to do,
Whose lad drunk far to often
And for this did not rest well.
And when she was with him,
What did happen?
He slept snoring through the night,
And that snore, it slept with her.
