_First Student:_
See the yellow sparkle of the Neckar in the glass,
And through the cedar branches sparkles blue the sea;
Hear the sweet piano--hear the German lass
Sing Freut" euch des Lebens--Oh! "I love I love the free!"
_Second Student:_
I like the canary better;
Look, how he swells his throttle!
He gurgles like musical water
That dances and sings in a bottle.
