Original lyrics
her nor di schaein maeidele, her nor di fan maeidele: wuss westi tien in asa waten weg? "ech wel gaein in ale gassen, in wel schraen wesch zim waschen! abi mit dir inaeinem san!" her nor di schaein maeidele, her nor di fan maeidele: wi westi waschen in asa waten weg? "di mist maeinen as ech bin schwach, ech ken waschen wesch bam tach, abi mit dir inaeinem san!" her nor di schaein maeidele, her nor di fan maeidele: of wuss westi trukenen in asa waten weg? "chwel farkoifen man mundir, in wel koifen a lang schnir, abi mit dir inaeinem san!" her nor di schaein maeidele, her nor di fan maeidele: wuss westi essen in asa waten weg? "broit mit wasser wel ech essen, tate-mamen wel ech fargessen abi mit dir inaeinem san!" her nor di schaein maeidele, her nor di fan maeidele: of wuss westi schlufen in asa waten weg? "ech bin noch a jinge frou, ech ken schlufen of a bintel schtrou, abi mit dir inaeinem san!" her nor di schaein maeidele, her nor di fan maeidele: mit wuss westi sech zideken in asa waten weg? "der tou fin himel wet mech zideken, di faeigelech welen mech oufweken, abi mit dir inaeinem san!"
