Original text and translations

German.png German text

O die Frauen, o die Frauen,
Wie sie Wonne tauen!
Wären lang ein Mönch geworden,
Wären nicht die Frauen!

English.png English translation

Oh women, oh women,
how they do delight!
I would have become a monk long ago
were it not for women!

Translation by Cayuga Vocal Ensemble
