Die Reitersleut’ mussten wohl ’ran an den Feind.
’Kas drop?’ hat der Führer zu einem gemeint.
Der blieb beim Sturm und war 16 Jahr.
Und im Liede lebt er als Castrops Husar. (Translation: Token money from the city Castrop 2 marks The rider probably had to get to the enemy. ’Kas drop?’ Said the guide to one. He stayed with the storm and was 16 years old. And in the song he lives as Castrop`s Hussar.) |
