Het vas Mijn Heer van TorenborgB
Ride oud oopon de sandC
Und vait to hear a paardekenD
Coom tromplin from de landC
He vaited vhen de boeren volkB
Vent oud oopon de plainD
He vaited dill de veary crowsE
Flew nestwarts home acainD
-
He vaited ash de wild fox vaitsE
In long some hoonger nothF
He vaited dill de flitterin batsE
Vere plack on AbendrothG
Id's woe to watch for taily breadH
Or bide forgotten callI
Boot oh to vait for heartsen lofeJ
Ish veariest of dem allI
-
O dat ish not mine laity's proochA
Shoost now so star like shinedK
O dat ish not mine laity's haarL
Soft floatin on de windK
Her goot crayhound mit soosh a stepM
Vas nefer vont to goB
Und dat is niet her paardekenD
Whose shtep so vell I knowD
-
Dat light ish speer light from a lanzE
Vitch'll part mine pody und soulN
De floatin haar is a pennon gayB
Or wafin banderolN
De crayhound ish a ploot hound wildO
Vitch long has dracked me hereP
Und het paardeken ish a var horseE
Vot has hoonted me like deerQ
-
Well shpoke Mijn Heer van TorenborgB
All drue vas afery wordtO
For dey bored him troo mit lanzenD
Und dey hewed him mit de swordtO
Dey killt him armloss harmlosE
De plooty reiver bandO
Und puried him so carelooslyN
Dat his vace shtick out de sandO
-
Boot e'er night's plack hat toorned to redO
Or e'er de stars vere goneD
Dere came de shtep of a paardekenD
Soft tromplin tromplin onD
A laity fair climped off on himR
Und trip mit dainty toesE
Boot oh mijn Gott how she vas shkreemR
Ven she trot on her drue lofe's noseE
-
Oh vot ish dis I trots oponD
Id's shape fool well I knowD
Dere nefer yet vas flower like disE
Dat in de garten crowD
Dere nefer yet vas fruit like disE
Ash ripen on a dreeD
Het is Mijn Heer van TorenborgB
Dat kan ik blainly seeE
-
Dat heerlijk nose van TorenborgB
Ish known of anciend dimeR
'Tis writ in olten chronikelN
Und sung in minsdrel rhymeR
Und dis de noblest of de raceE
Since hishdory pegansE
Ish shtickin here shdraighdt out de dirtO
Shoost like some boer mannsE
-
Oh cuss de man dat mordered himR
Ach cuss him oop and downD
Ja cuss him troo de forest roadsE
Und tamn him in de tounD
Und burn his vater und moderD
Vhere'er deir vootshteps vallN
Mit his schwesters und his brodersE
De teufel rake dem allN
-
May afery cuss dat e'er vas cusstO
Since cussin foorst peganD
Pe hoorled in von drementous cussE
Acainsdt dat nasdy manD
From de foorst crate cuss on AdamR
To de smalles' of de cropS
Here de tead man gafe a shiferD
Und gry oud For Gott's sake shdopS
-
Dere's a cerdain lot of shwearinD
Vitch anger alvays crafesE
Boot spite like dat's enof to pringB
De tead men from deir cravesE
I can't lie here no longerD
Und hear soosh pizen painD
Und since you've shtirred me out I kessE
I'll coom to life acainD
-
Mit von drementous shkreem of plissE
His drue lofe shtood de shockB
Den catcht him wildly py de noseE
Ach Torenborg lev'st du nockB
Ach ja du aint'st nod tead yetO
Dere's life shdill lef' pehindO
Gott pless de dat lef' dy noseE
Shdill wafin in de windO
-
Mit hands all ofer diamondsE
She loosed de sand apoutO
Mit an oyster shell so wildlyN
She digged her lofer outO
Und now dou'rt in free air lofeJ
Who warst shoost now in sandO
Dere vasn't ish a nicer manD
In all de NederlandO
-
Vhere vas dit liedeken writtenD
Vhere vas dit liedeken singB
Dat had gedone Hans BreitmannD
In de town of ScheveningB
'Tvas written ober RheinweinD
'Tvas written ober bierD
Und wer das lied gesungen hatO
Gott geb ihm ein glucklich's jahrD

Charles G. Leland
