'Konrad!' sprach die Frau Mama
'Conrad!' said the woman, Mama
'Ich geh aus und du bleibst da
'I'll go out and you'll stay there
Sei hübsch ordentlich und fromm
Be pretty neat and pious
Bis nach Haus ich wieder komm
Until I get home again
Und vor allem, Konrad, hör!
And above all, Konrad, listen!
Lutsche nicht am Daumen mehr
Stop sucking your thumb
Denn der Schneider mit der Scher
Because the tailor with the scissors
Kommt sonst ganz geschwind daher
Otherwise it comes along very quickly
Und die Daumen schneidet er
And he cuts his thumbs
Ab, als ob Papier es wär'
Off as if it were paper
Fort geht nun die Mutter und
Now the mother goes away and
Schwupp! den Daumen in den Mund
Whoosh! the thumb in the mouth
Bauz! da geht die Türe auf
Bauz! then the door opens
Und herein in schnellem Lauf
And in at a fast run
Springt der Schneider in die Stub
The tailor jumps into the room
Zu dem Daumenlutscher-Bub
To the thumb sucking boy
Weh! jetzt geht es klipp und klapp
Woe! Now it's a snap
Mit der Scher die Daumen ab
Use the scissors to cut your thumbs off
Mit der großen scharfen Scher!
With the big sharp scissors!
Hei! da schreit der Konrad sehr
Hey! Konrad screams a lot
Als die Mutter kommt nach Haus
When the mother comes home
Sieht der Konrad traurig aus
Konrad looks sad
Ohne Daumen steht er dort
He stands there without a thumb
Die sind alle, alle beide fort
They're all gone, both of them
