2. To Rosalinde (Eine etwas grobe Übersetzung.)

Songtext in

i	Come, oh come, oh come, Rosalinde,

i	dark is the house without you.

Come, oh come, oh come, Rosalinde,

dark is the house without you.

Oh, we miss you so, Rosalinde,

everyone sits alone for itself.

Even the siskin stops singing

and the pendulum of the big clock

stops swinging back and forth.

Rosalinde, when do you come?

Your legs are strong and brown

and your skirt's colorful like a dream.

Lots of splatters, dirty little ones,

look at the bottom of his hem.

Come into the house, make big puddles

with the umbrella and with the shoes.

Don't leave us high and dry,

Rosalinde, you can't do that.

Jörg and Gustav wrote a letter:

"Our ship arrives without us.

We stayed in Australia

because you can earn something there.

Don't be sad, say hello to Rosalinde

and the harbour and uncle Jan.

And the old capstan

in front of the sailors' home next door."

Come, oh come, oh come, Rosalinde,

tell us where Australia is.

Whether you get koalas and kangaroos

and tame snakes there.

There, the door flies open and it's her,

laughs and shakes off the rain,

spreads a cheese sandwich and eats it

and licks her fingers.

o	Come, oh come, oh come, Rosalinde,

o	dark is the house without you.
