March through the city

All the girls open

the windows and the doors

But why? Because!

Bumderassa:|

(Blowing of horns and beating of drums: This bit is often changed)

Two-colour towels

Moustaches and stars

But why? Because....

and a stick of roast meat

for their soldiers

But why? Because...

Back to their home

But all the maidens

are already married

But why? Because...
