Here you will find the lyrics and sheet music for the children’s song “Im Märzen der Bauer”.
1. In March the farmer harnesses the little horses.
He tends his fields and meadows.
He plows the ground, he harrows and sows
, and stirs his hands early in the morning and late.
2. The farmer’s wife, the maids, they must not rest,
they have to do in the house and in the garden;
they dig and rake and sing a song
and are happy when everything is green and blooming.
3. Spring passes by with work,
then the farmer harvests the fragrant hay;
he mows the grain, then he threshes it:
in winter there are many happy feasts.
