Lyrics
(German folk song)
Part 1
The violin’s ringing like lovely singing,
The violin’s ringing like lovely song.
Part 2
The clarinet, the clarinet makes doo-dle, doo-dle, dood-le, doo-dle det,
The clarinet, the clarinet makes doo-dle, doo-dle, dood-le, det.
Part 3
The horn, the horn, sounds so forlorn,
The horn, the horn, sounds so forlorn.
Part 4
The trumpets are sounding, ta ta ta ta-ta ta ta ta ta ta ta-ta ta.
The trumpets are sounding, ta ta ta ta-ta ta ta ta ta ta ta-ta ta.
Part 5
The timpani’s two notes, it’s always the same notes.
The timpani’s two notes, it’s always the same notes.
