by Meinrad Lienert (1865 - 1933)

Inukerli
Language: Swiss German (Schwizerdütsch) 
Doli doli, Chindli!
Dusse goht äs Windli.
Trait äs Glöggli i dr Hand,
Am'ne wysse Näbelband,
Lüted's überei dur's Land.
Dili dili däli däli sum sum sum!
Dili dili däli däli sum sum sum!

Doli doli, Chindli!
Dusse goht äs Windli;
Goht am Chilehof1 verby,
Schlöiff red all arm Seele i,
Myni blöiss muess wachber sy.
Dili dili däli däli sum sum sum!
Dili dili däli däli sum sum sum!

Doli doli, Chindli!
Dusse goht äs Windli;
Hät im Schybli äs Pünggli g'gä,
Sait äs Angeli: Ich bi's dä!
Hilf dr 's Chindli wiegele.
Dili dili däli däli sum sum sum!
Dili dili däli däli sum sum sum!
