Der Knabe an die Mutter See original
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Serbian (Српски)
Jung vermähle mich, o ... Mutter!
Eh der Bart ganz das Gesicht mir einfaßt,
Und sich Kinn und Schnurrbart mir verschlingen.
Möchten sonst die Mädchen von mir sagen,
Wenn sie einmal mich den Müttern zeigen:
"Mutter, sieh' aus dem Gesträuch den Bären,
o Mutter, sieh' den Hasen aus dem Kraute!"
