Aa hipp og hoppe og tipp og toppe paa denne Dag; aa nipp og nappe og tripp og trappe i slikt eit Lag. Og det er Kjæl-i-Sol, og det er Spel-i-Sol, og det er Titr-i-[Lid]1, og det er Glitr-i-[Lid]1, og det er Kjæte og Lurvelæte ein Solskindag. Aa nupp i Nakken, og stup i Bakken og tipp paa Taa; aa rekk i Ringen og svipp i Svingen og hopp-i-haa. Og det er Steik-i-Sol, og det er Leik-i-Sol, og det er Glim-i-[Lid]1, og det er Stim-i-[Lid]1, og det er Kvitter og Bekkje-Glitter og lognt i Kraa. Aa trapp og tralle, og Puff i Skalle, den skal du ha! Og snipp og snute, og Kyss paa Trute, den kan du ta. Og det er Rull-i-Ring, og det er Sull-i-Sving, og det er Lett-paa-Taa, og det er Sprett-paa-Taa, og det er hei-san og det er hopp-san og tra-la-la.

Ah, hip et hop et tip et top aujourd'hui ; et clic et clac et allez et marchez en petit groupe. Et câlin-soleil, et jeu-soleil, et frissons, et scintillements, et gaieté, et cris, un jour ensoleillé. Ah p'tit coup sur la nuque, et plongeon dans la colline, et sautillements ; ah entrez dans la ronde et tourbillonnez, et hop-la-la. Et grille-soleil, et jeu-soleil et brillance, et tumulte, et gazouillis, et rivière-miroir, et silence dans le coin. Ah avance et chante et coup sur la tête, c'est ton lot ! Et pointe et museau, et bise sur la bouche, tu peux le faire. Et tourne la ronde, et chante en rond, et un jeté léger, et un jeté croisé, et hourra, et hop, et tra-la-la.
