from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Havele havele Hahne
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Havele havele Hahne,
Fastennacht geht ane,
Droben in dem Hinkelhaus,
Hängt ein Korb mit Eier raus;
Droben in der Firste,
Hängen die Bratwürste,
Gebt uns die langen,
Laßt die kurzen hangen,
Ri ra rum,
Der Winter muß herum;
Was wollt ihr uns denn geben,
Ein glückseligs Leben,
Glück schlag ins Haus,
Komm nimmermehr heraus.
