Rough translation:
Sleep my child, sleep like you’re supposed to
I’ll sing you a song about things you need to learn
Soon you’ll learn about what is poor and what is rich
The lovely palaces, the rich houses; the poor man builds them
But who lives in them? Not he, but the rich man
The poor man, he lives in a cellar. Dank moisture drips down the walls.
From this he soon gets rheumatism in the feet and in the hands!
