Es gieng gout tröscher über land.
Er kam, da er zetröschen fand.
Do fidelet er ir, do giget si im gar süesse.

Zart jungfrow, ir sind wolgemuot.
Uff üw'ren tenn wär tröschen gout.
Do fidelet er ...

Er Leit si nider uff das tenn.
Er tät ihr wie der han der henn.
Do fidelet er ...

On your field there is good threshing.
Then he did fiddel ...

He lead her down in the fields,
And did to her as the rooster does to the hen.
Then he did fiddel ..
