by Attila József (1905 - 1937)

A kanász
Language: Hungarian (Magyar) 
Az én falkám olyan falka,
ondolálva van a farka.
Orrukban csak magyar mód
csillog egy kis aranydrót.
 
Van egy pösze kis malacom,
fővárosi grófkisasszony.
Sóhajtott is egy ízbe,
nézi magát a vízbe.
 
Van nekem egy oly kis kanom,
szelid szóra kezes nagyon.
Az ha fogja s egyet túr,
a kőkastély felfordul.
 
Van egy semmi kis furulyám,
nem nőtt az, csak datolyafán.
Azt ha fúvom, hull a makk,
a fák táncra állanak.
 
S ahány felhő, összeszalad,
ha csördítem ustoromat.
Réz a nyele, szikrázik.
De sok szoknya megázik!
