Die schwarze Barbara [English translation]

La la la la la la la la la la la..

(REF)

Yes yes, the most pretty girl in the world

Is my barbara

What I like about her

That's her black hair

She has those sky-sky-skyblue eyes

And a mouth of crimson red

Yes Yes she is marvelous

Black Barbara

At the forest inn "Cavalryman" (1)

One night I thirstily knocked at the door

Opens up Black Barbara

Rough John pours me a glass

Fill up, fill up innkeeper, fill up

Your Krätzer burns, robs me of my senses (2)

If it wasn't for your black daughter

You'd never have known me

If it wasn't for your black daughter

You'd never have known me

Yes yes, the most pretty girl in the world

Is my barbara

What I like about her

That's her black hair

She has those sky-sky-skyblue eyes

And a mouth of crimson red

Yes Yes she is marvelous

Black Barbara

At the forest inn "Cavalryman"

The innkeeper closes the rattling gate

The clocks all show midnight

And I climb up the stairs

Letst thou me in, into your chamber

We'll close the door ever so silently

And outside the cold wind blows

Roaring along with his song

And outside the cold wind blows

Roaring along with his song
