Ich werde Soldat, ich werde Soldat!
Im blitzenden Staat
marschier ich umher

Und wer mich bedroht,

Ich werde Soldat, ich werde Soldat!

El petit camarada

Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)

Jo seré soldat, jo seré soldat!
En un brillant uniforme
desfilaré per l’entorn
amb el fusell a l’espatlla.

I a qui m’amenaci
a trets el mataré,
a trets el mataré.
Jo seré soldat, jo seré soldat!
