by Klaus Groth (1819 - 1899)

Regenleed
Language: Plattdeutsch 
Rȩgen, Rȩgen drus',
Wi sitt hier warm in Hus'!
De Vageln sitt in Bom to kurn,
De Köh de stat an Wall to schurn:
Rȩgen, Rȩgen drus',
Wi sitt hier warm in Hus'!

Rȩgen, Rȩgen rusch,
Wa rükt dat ut den Busch!
De Blöm de hangt so slapri dal,
De Böm de röhrt de Blæd ni mal:
Rȩgen, Rȩgen rusch,
Wa rükt dat ut den Busch!

Rȩgen, Rȩgen sus'
Vun baben op uns Hus,
Vunt Dack hendal in striken Strom
Un lisen ut den Eschenbom:
Rȩgen, Rȩgen sus'
Vun baben op uns Hus.

Rȩgen, Rȩgen rull,
Bet alle Gröben vull!
Denn lat de Wulken oewergan,
Lat de Sünn wedderkam';
Rȩgen, Rȩgen rull,
Bet alle Gröben vull!
