Translated lyrics
We know a tune for joy and happiness. We always sing it. It sounds so lively. Our grandpa and grandma used to sing it when they were little children. This is our tune, our lively tune. It bring joy and happiness. Sing, children, this lovely tune and be cheerful. We know a tune for joy and happiness. We always sing it. All our relations used to sing it when they were little children. Refrain.
