lyrics
English translation:
The willowood plank, plank,
Near my little bridge, bridge.
In the field it lies, it lies,
When will my love come by, come by?
When will my love come by, come by?
What will he bring to me, bring to me?
Red boots, boots,
For better work, work.
The willowood plank, plank,
By my little bridge, bridge...
The willowood plank, plank,
Near my little bridge, bridge.
In the field it lies, it lies,
When will my love come by, come by?
When will my love come by, come by?
What will he bring to me, bring to me?
Red boots, boots,
For better work, work.
The willowood plank, plank,
By my little bridge, bridge...
