Transcript of sound file:
Es sitzt ein Vogel auf dem Leim,
Er flattert sehr und kann nicht heim.
Ein schwarzer Kater schleicht herzu,
Die Krallen scharf, die Augen gluh.
Am Baum hinauf und immer höher
Kommt er dem armen Vogel näher.
Der Vogel denkt: Weil das so ist
Und weil mich doch der Kater frißt,
So will ich keine Zeit verlieren,
Will noch ein wenig quinquilieren
Und lustig pfeifen wie zuvor.
Der Vogel, scheint mir, hat Humor.
Translation:
A bird is sitting in glue
He flutters a lot and can’t go home
A black cat creeps toward him
With sharp claws and glowing eyes
Up the tree higher and higher
He comes nearer to the poor bird
The bird thinks: Because this is so
And because the cat will certainly eat me
Thus I won’t waste time
I’ll still chirp a bit
And merrily whistle like before
It seems to me, the bird has a good sense of humor.
