German text
- Wir gehn nun,`wo der Tudelsack
- In unsrer Schenke Brummt.
- Und rufen dabei fröhlich aus:
- Es lebe Dieskau und sein Haus,
- Ihm Sei Beschert,
- Was er Begehrt,
- Und was er sich selbst wünschen mag!
English text
- We go now to where the bagpipe
- in our tavern drones.
- And as we go we joyfully shout
- long live Dieskau and his house.
- May he be given
- all his desires,
- all he would wish for himself.
French text
- Nous allons maintenant ou la cornemuse
- Bourdonne dans notre taverne;
- Et nous écrions joyeusement:
- Vive Dieskau et sa lignée:
- Que lui soit accordé
- Tout ce qu'il désire
- Et ce qu'il peut souhaiter pour lui-même!
Libretto: Christian Friedrich Henrici; translated from German to English by Thomas A. Quinn; translated from French to English by Pierre Balascheff.
