Kooreke,
midadi-mädadi, männake!
Kibadi-kobadi kokku mingu,
midadi-mädadi mättad tulgu,
taevast tulgu, sisse mingu,
ümmer männa mitsa-matsa,
leiva peale litsa-latsa,
ah, ah, ah, ah!
Lastel lõbus tantsu lüia,
võid ja pehmet leiba süia,
ah, ah, ah, ah!

Precious cream,
splish-splash, butter whisk!
Clitter-clatter, come together,
splish-splash, clumps must come,
come from the sky, get in the butter,
round the whisk, squish-squash,
onto the bread, split-splat,
hah, hah, hah, hah!
Fun for the children to dance around,
while eating their fresh baked bread and butter,
hah, hah, hah, hah!
