(From Zischkowiz)
Translated by Ed Bernthal

The Polish king, disguised as a beggar
Came to the Kaiser, to free his daughter,
Came to the Kaiser, to free his daughter.

‘Please give a gift to a beggar man
So that he will leave your courtyard,
So that he will leave your courtyard.’

“Kaiser, I don’t care about a gift.
I want to free your little daughter,
I want to free your little daughter.”

‘Whoever wants our little daughter
Has to have very much bread.
Has to have very much bread.

“And if he does not have enough bread,
I will give him bread crumbs to eat.
I will give him bread crumbs to eat.”

‘I don’t care for you daughter
Your daughter is a [Censored],
Your daughter is a [Censored].’

When the youngest of the brothers heard about this,
He had three whips made for himself,
And whipped him day and night.

“Change, change, my little brother
Or it will cost you your life,
Or it will cost you your life.”
