by Gotfred Benjamin Rode (1830 - 1878)

Tre katte krøb op på taget engang
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
Tre katte krøb op på taget engang
og skreg og mjauede natten lang,
det var nu faldet dem alle ind:
musik er så dejlig i måneskin,
musik er så dejlig, så dejlig
i måneskin. 

Til sidst fik de husets herre vakt,
ham faldt det nu ind, han ville slå takt,
ak vé! Da standsed det sangerkor,
thi taktstokken var en piskesnor,
thi taktstokken var en piskesnor,
en piskesnor.
