Wahre, wahre deinen Sohn,
Nachbarin, vor Wehe,
weil ich ihn mit schwarzem Aug'

O wie brennt das Auge mir,

Flammet ihm die Seele nicht --

Hoed maar, hoed je lieve zoon
Language: Dutch (Nederlands)  after the German (Deutsch)
Hoed maar, hoed je lieve zoon,
Buurvrouw goed, voor lijden,
Daar ik met mijn zwarte oog
Vast hem ga verleiden.
O, mijn ogen zijn vol vuur,
Waardoor 't branden gaan zal!
Vlamt bij hem de ziel nog niet,
Wel, jouw huisje brandt al!
