|---|---|
Klein-Zschocher müsse |
Klein-Zschocher’ll be |
So zart und süße |
All sweet and tender |
Wie lauter Mandelkerne sein. |
Like a piece of almond-candy; |
In unsere Gemeine |
Around here |
Zieh heute ganz alleine |
A whole bunch of good stuff |
Der Überfluss des Segens ein. |
Will come to us today. |
