The English translation posted by campfire at the top of this thread appeared prominently in "The Fireside Book of Folk Songs" in 1949. As many American 'Catters may recall, this was an extremely popular book for elementary schools.

It's loaded with great old songs, melodies, and illustrations, and appears on eBay all the time for about $10.
