Brauner Bursche führt zum Tanze
Sein blauäugig schönes Kind;
Schlägt die Sporen keck zusammen,
Csardasmelodie beginnt.
Küßt und herzt sein süßes Täubchen,
Dreht sie, führt sie, jauchzt und springt;
Wirft drei blanke Silbergulden
Auf das Zimbal, daß es klingt.

‘n Bruine jongen voert ten dans daar
Language: Dutch (Nederlands)  after the German (Deutsch)
‘n Bruine jongen voert ten dans daar
Zijn blauwogig bloedmooi kind;
Slaat de sporen ferm tezamen,
‘t Csardasdansorkest begint.
Kust en klemt zijn zoete duifje,
Draait haar, leidt haar, juicht en springt;
Werpt drie blanke zilv’ren guldens
Op het cimbel, dat het klinkt.
