Das Hemmed

Kennst du das einsame Hemmed?
  Flattertata, flattertata.

Der 's trug, ist baß verdämmet!
  Flattertata, flattertata.

Es knattert und rattert im Winde.
  Windurudei, windurudei.

Es weint wie ein kleines Kinde.
  Windurudei, windurudei.

Das ist das einsame
      Hemmed.

by Christian Morgenstern (1871-1914) , "Das Hemmed"
