Translated lyrics
German Translation: Oh Hdmmerchen, Hdmmerchen klopf, schlag stdrker einen Nagel, noch einen Nagel. Kein Brot ist in der Stube, nur Kummer und Leid ohne ende. Oh Hdmmerchen, Hdmmerchen klopf, die Uhr schldgt schon bald zwvlf, die Augen fallen schon zu, gib Kraft, oh lieber G4tt helf. Oh Hdmmerchen, Hdmmerchen klopf, schlag stdrker die Ndgel, schlag schnell. Bis morgen muss es schon fertig sein, die Schuhe der reichen Tochter. Oh Hdmmerchen, Hdmmerchen klopf, rutsch nicht aus meiner Hand, mein einziger Erndhrer bis du, ohne dich w|rde ich verhungern.
