Frem og tilbage, frem og tilbage, alle dine sollyse levedage. Jeg skal vugge dig, vennen min, vugge dig lige i himmelen ind, vugge din sorg tilhvile. Luk dit bedrøvede øiepar, jeg skal vugge din sorg tilhvile. Jeg skal fortælle de deiligste ting, så du i drømme skal smile. Så skal jeg føre dig frem til fest, så skal dit øiepar stråle i glæde. Så skal jeg skue i brudedragt dyreste vennen min dansen at træde. Frem og tilbage, frem og tilbage, alle dine sollyse levedage! Jeg skal vugge dig, vennen min, vugge dig lige i himmelen ind, vugge din sorg tilhvile.
