B. 181. The Dowry of the Bride
(From many places)
Translated by John Buerfeind
You have always said,
You don’t have any money.
Now we demand:
Where do you keep the money?
It is in the bed chamber, in the corner,
In the small bundle:
There are the gold pieces, three
Gold pieces are there.
{also}
Had you bragged, that
you have money.
Now we’ve got you,
Now we demand:
Were do you have it?
It is in the bed chamber, in the corner,
In the small bundle.
Now that you got me,
Now that you demand:
There it is.
No known music.
