Es regnet, es regnet, der Kuckuck wird...
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): ENG FRE
Es regnet, es regnet, der Kuckuck wird naß,
bunt werden die Blumen, und grün wird das Gras.
Mairegen bringt Segen, heraus aus dem Haus,
steigt schnell in die Kutsche, gleich fahren wir aus.
Es regnet, es regnet, der Kuckuck wird naß,
wir sitzen im Trocknen, was schadet uns das?
Mairegen bringt Segen, und werden wir naß,
so wachsen wir lustig, wie Blumen und Gras.
G. Jenner sets lines 1, 2, 7, 8

Il pleut, il pleut, le coucou se mouille
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch)
Il pleut, il pleut, le coucou se mouille,
Les fleurs se colorent et l'herbe devient verte.
La pluie de mai apporte la bénédiction, sortons de la maison,
Vite montons dans la voiture, tout de suite partons.
Il pleut, il pleut, le coucou se mouille,
Nous sommes assis à l'abri, quel mal cela nous fait-il ?
La pluie de mai apporte la bénédiction, si nous nous mouillons
Nous serons contents comme les fleurs et l'herbe.
