Das ist ein Flöten und Geigen,
Trompeten schmettern darein;
Da tanzt wohl den Hochzeitreigen
Die Herzallerliebste mein.

Dazwischen schluchzen und stöhnen
Die lieblichen Engelein.

C'est une bande de flûtes et de violons
 (Sung text translation for setting by R. Schumann)
 See original
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch) 
C'est une bande de flûtes et de violons
À laquelle se joignent les trompettes ;
Dans la ronde des noces danse
La bien-aimée de mon cœur.

Charivari où tintent et résonnent
Timbales et chalumeaux ;
Parmi eux sanglotent et geignent
Les bons petits anges.
