If I hat gold as I hafe timeC
I tells you how 'tvere shpentB
On efery year I'd shtay a weekA
In Vlanderen's hoofstad GentB
For oh de sveet wild veelinsD

Vot life dere long acoA

If efer man hat manly heartB
He'd veel dat heart to beatB
Vhen mit de oldten dime of GhentB
He valks troo efery shdreetB
Und ach de volk are yet so gootB
It gave me soosh a plissD
Vhen I hear a bier hous spielman singA
A melodie like disD

Het was op eenen MondayB
All on a Monday freeB
Dat mijnheere Jacob Van ArteveldeB
Unto his men said heB
He seide 'Mijn lief gesellenE
Ve all moost ride out landB
And trive our way to Bruges townE
Or Brussel in Braband '-

Und as he oonto Brussel camF
De meisjes sprong from bedB
Und found Mynheere Van ArteveldeB
Mit a cross bolt troo his headB
Und shoost pecause dis bier hous songA
Recht troo my heartsen ventB
I feel dat I could life und dieB
All in de down of GentB
