And here is a kind of sort of translation:

The brittle

Schlesi people song
1. Rosel, if you my wuerst?
Nu,, nu,!
And also mean taetst will?
Nu,, nu!

2. Your will do not do I!
Nu,, nu,!
Impact you rather in the face!
Nu,, nu!

3. Rosel, pick you Kraenzelkraut.
Nu,, nu,!
You are to become my bride!
Nu,, nu!

4. Kraenzelkraut do not pick I!
Nu,, nu,!
I am not young and marriage '!
Nu,, nu!

5. Are you young and heiratst not?
Nu,, nu,!
I am proud and like you not!
Nu,, nu!

Seems to be a male/female call and response song, ,maybe Mudgaurd could do better with a translation.......!
