Am Morgen spricht die Magd ganz wild:
"Ich hab heut Nacht ein Kind gestillt -
ein Kind mit einem Käs als Kopf -
und einem Horn am Hinterschopf!
Das Horn, o denkt euch, war aus Salz
und ging zu essen, und dann -"
"Halt's -
halt's Maul!" so spricht die Frau, "und geh
an deinen Dienst, Zä-zi-li-e!"

Le rêve de la servante
Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
Au matin la servante toute affolée dit :
« Cette nuit j'ai allaité un enfant --
un enfant dont la tête était un fromage --
et avec une corne derrière la tête !
Pensez donc, la corne était en sel
et était bonne à manger, et puis -- »
« Ça suffit --
ferme la ! -- dit la femme -- et retourne
à ton service, Zé-zi-le ! »
