Draußen weht es bitterkalt, Wer kommt da durch den Winterwald? Stipp - stapp, stipp - stapp und huckepack - Knecht Ruprecht ist's mit seinem Sack. Was ist denn in dem Sacke drin? Äpfel, Mandeln und Rosin' Und [schöne]1 Zuckerrosen, Auch [Pfeffernüss']2 für's gute Kind Die andern, die nicht artig sind, [Die]3 klopft er auf die Hosen.
