Oi' Schwalb' macht koi'n Sommer, oi' Tröpfle koi'n Bach, oi' Feder koi' Vogel, oi' Ziegel koi' Dach. Oi' Baum macht koin' Wald net, oi' Schöpple koin' Brand, oi' Donner koi G'witter, oi' Finger koi' Hand. Oi' Wort macht koi' Predigt, oi' Kärtle koi' Spiel, aber oi' Kuss vom Schätzle, o! oi' Kuss macht viel!
