Available translation(s): ENG

Mei Herz is a Flamm',
die brennt mi schier aus;
wann's lang' a so dauert,
i halt's nimmer aus!

Mei Herz is ganz zundert,
und d'rin is a Brand;
nur'n Dirndl ihre Busserl,
die löschen's allsamt!

Und die gluatigen Blick
und die feurige Red';
das Dirndl hat die Schuld,
dass alles in Flammen steht!
