Aus dem dunklen Tor Wallt kein Zug von Mücklein; Horch! daraus empor Schallt Trompeterstücklein, Platz für die schönen Husaren! Milchmädchen bei Seite! Drückt euch ans Brückengeländer! Es ziehn in die Weite Lustige Knaben. Fremde! wie das Hengstlein Den frohen Lauf tanzt, Wie sein dickes Wänstlein Der Hauptmann aufpflanzt. Seien wir munter und denken wir nicht An den weißen Stein, Der ihr Füßelein trug, Wenn am Brunnen die Liebste Stand bei der Freundin. Hei! vielleicht ein Windstoß Am Brunnen wirbelt, Daß, der sonst gelind floß, Stäubt und verzwirbelt, Tröste dich, Herzallerliebste! Die bausigen Backen Wird dein Husärlein Dem Gotte der Winde zerhacken!

Uit de donk're poort Stampt een stoet van petten. Hoor! Vanuit dit koor Schalt trompetgeschetter, Wijk voor de knappe huzaren! Melkmeisjes ter zijde! Druk je maar tegen de gevels! Ver weg gaan nu rijden Vrolijke knapen. Vrienden! Zie hoe 't hengstje Blij over straat danst, Met zijn bolle pensje De kapitein sjanst. Laten wij blij zijn en Denken we niet Aan de witte steen, Die haar voetje laatst droeg, Toen bij de1 stadsbron de liefste Met een vriendin stond. Ha! Als straks een windstoot Bij de stadsbron ronddraait, Als, die anders zacht floot, Rondstuift en storm zaait, Troost je maar, mijn allerliefste! Zijn blazende kaken Zal jouw huzaartje De god van de winden wel kraken!
1 Bij de: te zingen op twee zestienden (ook verderop)
