Wir sind ja, Kind, im Maie, Wirf Buch und Heft von dir! Komm' einmal her in's Freie, Und sing' ein Lied mit mir. Komm, singen fröhlich beide Wir einen Wettgesang, Und wer da will, entscheide, Wer von uns besser sang!

Nen, ja som al mes de maig, deixa de banda llibres i quaderns! Vine aquí, a l’aire lliure, i canta amb mi una cançó. Vine, cantem tots dos joiosament en un concurs de cant, i qui vulgui que decideixi qui dels dos canta millor!
