O, hoe woedend is het meisje!
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the German (Deutsch)
O, hoe woedend is het meisje!
[Wie wil met haar praten, wie?]1
Naar de bergen gaat het meisje,
Met haar kudde gaat zij mee,
Is zo mooi [net]2 als de bloemen,
Is zo woedend als de zee.
O, hoe woedend is het meisje!
[Wie wil met haar praten, wie?]1
