Onder de maan schuift de lange rivier Over de lange rivier schuift moede de maan Onder de maan op de lange rivier schuift de kano naar zee Langs het hoogriet langs de laagwei schuift de kano naar zee schuift met de schuivende maan de kano naar zee Zo zijn ze gezellen naar zee de kano de maan en de man Waarom schuiven de maan en de man getweeën gedwee naar de zee
