Am Donaustrande, da steht ein Haus, da schaut ein rosiges Mädchen aus. Das Mädchen, es ist wohl gut gehegt, zehn eiserne Riegel sind vor die Türe gelegt. Zehn eiserne Riegel das ist ein Spaß; die spreng ich als wären sie nur von Glas.

Sulla riva del Danubio, sta una piccola casa, si affaccia una fanciulla dalle guance di rosa. La bella fanciulla, è molto ben protetta, dieci catenacci di ferro tengono serrata la porta. Ma dieci catenacci di ferro per me sono uno scherzo, riuscirò a romperli tutti come se fossero vetro.
