Ein Hund kam in die Küche
und stahl dem Koch ein Ei.
Da nahm der Koch den Löffel
und schlug den Hund zu Brei.

Da kamen die anderen Hunde
und gruben ihm ein Grab
Und setzen ihm ein'n Grabstein....
Auf dem geschrieben stand:

Ein Hund kam in die Küche
und stahl dem Koch ein Ei.

Ghabh gadhar isteach sa chistin
Language: Irish (Gaelic)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Ghabh gadhar isteach sa chistin
Ón gcócaire sciob ubh.
Rug seisean ar an spúnóg
is mharaigh é le goimh.

Is bhailigh na madraí eile
is cuireadh é sa chré
is thóg siad dó leac uaighe
gabh ’leith is bí á léamh:

Ghabh gadhar isteach sa chistin
Ón gcócaire sciob ubh.
