Nauriisilla.

- - - Isäntä kävelee naurismaan ympäri sanoen:

1Panen, panen aitaaI build, I build a fence

2Vaskisilla vasaroilla,With copper hammers,

3Kultaisilla kurikoilla.With golden wedges.

Nauris tulee ja isäntä kysyy:

4Missä sinä kävit?Where did you go?

Nauris:

5Pippiläs, pappilas,At Pepper-place, parsonage,

6Kiehuvas kattilas.In the boiling kettle.

7Mitä siellä teit?What did you do there?

8Hakkasin halkoja?Did I chop firewood?

9Mitäs söit?What did you eat?

10Munavoita piirakoita.Egg-butter pies.

11Mitäs minulle toit?What did you bring me?

12Parin kultakenkiä.A pair of golden shoes.
