"Bubi, Schatzi,
Süsses Fratzi,
Kleiner Schelm und Herzensdieb!
Herz'ges Schnucker!
Zeig' die Guckerl,
God, oh God, how great is love!"
--
As the jubilee finally quieted a little,
The father stepped up to me favorably:
"Bravo!" he said, "young man,
I certainly didn't expect that from you!
But what about," he said seriously and sternly,
"the aforementioned humor?"
"Oh," I said, "there's also plenty of that,
You'll soon see some
In the Second Act:
There is, for example, an old major!
He's always in dread of his mother-in-law.
Nevertheless, at one time, he goes to a festival,
Where the guests all ask:
"Hey, old Major,
what's going on here?
Where's your mother-in-law?"
"Haha!" he says, "she's not here!
She's all the way in America!
For once we can have some fun!"
Suddenly, there's a ring. You can hear someone bitching and screaming -
And who, do you think, comes in???
