Translated by H. Melvin Symmank

The geese flew home,
The geese flew home,
The gander remained behind.
Who will bring him back?
Who will bring him back?
The Gooseherd's wife.

The herder sits at home,
The herder sits at home,
Making a club for himself,
For his young wife,
For his young wife,
With it to beat her to death.

Where then should her grave be?
Where then should her grave be?
In the mouse hole.
Where does the little mouse live?
Where does the little mouse live?
In the stork's nest.
