Hollahe und holdrio! Heute sind wir Kinder froh, halten Umzug durch die Stadt, wie mans nie gesehen hat. Ferdinand und Wolf und Peter ziehn voran als Stabstrompeter, Trommler ist der lange Hans Und die Becken schlägt der Franz. Eine Eskadron Ulanen schwenkt die bunten Lanzenfahnen, kommandiert von Sattlers Fritz; gravitätisch folgt der Spitz. Ah! nun kommt die Staatskarosse, vorneweg vier muntre Rosse; lächelnd thront Schön-Inge drin als des Festes Königin. Edeldamen sind erschienen, sie geziemend zu bedienen: Lieselotte und Marie, Else, Käte und Sofie. Hinterdrein, schaut euch nur um, zieht ein großes Publikum. Hollahe und holdrio! Gings doch alle Tage so!

Hooray and hurrah! Today we children are happy; we're going on parade through the city; one has never seen the like of it. Ferdinand and Wolf and Peter are leading the way as trumpet majors, tall Hans is the drummer and Franz is beating the cymbals. A squadron of Uhlans waves the colourful flags on their lances, commanded by Sattler's Fritz; [the dog] Spitz follows gravely. Ah! here comes the state carriage with four lively horses in front of it; inside, beautiful Inge sits enthroned as the queen of festival. Noble ladies have appeared to wait upon her, as is appropriate: Lieselotte and Marie, Elsie, Katie and Sophie. Behind them all, just look around, comes a great multitude. Hooray and hurrah! If only all days could be like this!
